  • Summary

  • The maker movement generated the recent increase in innovation spaces such as a makerspace. Student makers at UNT explore various topics surrounding making, the Maker Mindset, and the Maker movement. We have a few series that focus on a range of topics from how various spaces developed their unique makerspace/fablab/techgym/design studio/etc. to meeting our makers to a series on specific technologies that are either in our makerspace or new in the maker community. Join us for a journey into the maker minds and spaces that inspire us.
