Engineering Innovation Center

The recently completed Center for Engineering Design and Innovation is an adaptive remodel of the former cafeteria in the Klages Center building, which was built in 1958. The new engineering center is a maker space which connects multiple departments and provides a platform for modern learning and collaboration. In addition to systems upgrades, the project added a machine and woodworking shop, manufacturing and prototyping lab, design rooms, study rooms, an environmental lab, and a tool room. The open main room, or “Collaboratory,” is a large design center where students from engineering and other majors can participate in and showcase design projects.
