Build/Make Things
Visit our dedicated space during open hours! We will show you around and describe what you can build. It doesn't matter what type or level of experience you have; If you want to learn, we will teach you!
Get Involved in EMIC Leadership
This space is run by the students for the students. We are always looking for the next leaders to take the EMIC to the next level. Talk to the Student Operations Manager or the EMIC Director to get involved.
Learn How to Build/Make Things
If you do not have any experience building or making things using state-of-the-art equipment, no problem. We will get you involved in a program at your skill level to get you to up-to-speed. The programs involve a series of workshops to properly train you. Whether you are looking for learning something completely new or to improve your skills in one area in particular, the EMIC workshops will help you get there. Let's discuss!
Have course projects created in the EMIC
We encourage faculty to propose course projects that the students must develop at the EMIC. These are great opportunities to further our students' learning in an interdisciplinary environment. Please contact the EMIC Director to brainstorm ideas to create a class project involving the space. Or if you already have ideas, we would love to hear them.
