Learning Spaces

We start with the ASML Ideation Space, a reconfigurable idea center that provides study spaces, teleconferencing, conference rooms and a movable panel grid system with writable white boards — all designed to encourage collaboration and exploration.

Next is Donald's Garage, named after the late renowned engineer, Donald P. Shiley, where students can prototype and test their ideas, using everything from 3D printing to circuit board printing, to building an early-generation product.

The fabrication lab offers a safe work space that brings student projects to life using machines to weld, laser-cut and shape metals and plastics. Worktables are situated throughout the space for students to assemble their projects.

The machine shop includes a separate wood shop and is an empowering space that provides students with safe access to equipment, allowing design teams and entrepreneur teams to create and engineer solutions for their projects.

The newly renovated lab supports the school's embedded software programs across the computer science, electrical and integrated engineering departments. This collaborative space also serves as a backbone for the capstone design program.

Gifted generously by the Chang Family, this space serves as an innovation hub for entrepreneurship classes and interdisciplinary collaboration for teams working on their capstone design projects, often in partnership with their industry mentors.

Purpose-built for electrical engineering, the revamped lab combines form and function. New windows provide ample natural light, while a full suite of modern flooring, modular furniture and advanced AV/IT infrastructure creates an elite technical environment.

In the computer lab, students receive personal guidance from devoted faculty to learn how to use both computational thinking and abstract reasoning to help hone their problem solving skills and execute software solutions that advance our society.
