A Dedicated Workspace for Engineering Students
Makers´ Studio is a shared experimentation space for university students, equipped with group and project workspaces, materials, tools, and equipment for creating various prototypes, as well as community support. Students have access to a laser cutter, a 3D printer, and an embroidery machine, among other tools. Projects of any size, related to studies, hobbies, or theses, can be started here with ease.
