The MakerLab provides tools, equipment, and services for the creation of 3D models, microelectronics, and other maker activities. The Studios include a computing lab with high-end iMac and Dell Precision PCs that are loaded with advanced engineering and multimedia production software, as well as a set of seven creation studios that support photography, graphic design, audio and video production, and the development of extended reality experiences.
