STEM-focused colleges have two main objectives when educating their students. First, they seek to build a strong backbone of technical knowledge through theory-heavy classes. Second, and perhaps more importantly, they provide a place for students to learn and practice real job skills before joining the workforce. These job skills are taught via project-centric curriculum, where students learn through experience instead of lecture.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While project-centric curriculum is a great concept, most universities are not equipped to support the initiative. Fabrication resources are often\u00a0 dispersed throughout campus, largely unavailable for general student use. That\u2019s where innovation centers come in. They provide a centralized physical space for students to interface with manufacturing technology directly. Use of the space can vary from university to university, but most allow students to bring class, club, or personal projects from concept to creation. This is the perfect way to introduce students to additive manufacturing as a means to create parts that would traditionally be made using subtractive manufacturing methods.<\/p>\n

In this white paper, we\u2019re going to highlight a few different\u00a0 ways four universities created additive manufacturing innovation centers \u2014 from how they funded and built them to who uses them\u00a0 and how they\u2019ve impacted their respective universities.<\/p>\n
