The wood shop, Electronics studio, laser studio, and 3D print studio are supervised access zones. These zones may be accessed by students, both undergraduate and graduate, only when an approved faculty member or the technicians are present. The assembly studio and paint room are controlled access but unsupervised zones. Students who have received shop safety training may have unsupervised access to the assembly studio to assemble and finish their models.
