Lab Space

Lab hours, location and reservation

The lab requires Buzzcard access but is generally staffed and available for walk-in visits, brief tours, or questions between 9:30-5 each day with a few exceptions.

We are located in room 318 of Skiles Classroom Building, in a Makerspace built to encourage individual work, discussion, critique, and collaboration. We are staffed for regular business hours and happy to assist you in developing project ideas, using our equipment, or anything else you might need.

The lab is not primarily intended to be used as a classroom, but there may be occasions when a class visit for training or for use of specific hardware or software is needed. To inquire about reserving the lab for a class session, please review the Room Reservation Calendar (login required) and then make your request through our Room Reservation Request Form (login required).
