ISD Makerspaces

Our makerspaces, ISDworks!, is equipped with state-of-the-art prototyping equipment such as:

  • Advanced 3D printers
  • Laser cutters
  • CNC machines
  • Solar simulator
  • Nanoimprint machine
  • Electrochemical stations
  • Robotic arm

 

Prototyping is a core part of the integrative systems design process, and therefore our students are encouraged to gain hands-on practice throughout the program. The makerspaces also serve as project spaces for inspiration, collaboration and project showcases.

 

This is the heart and soul of ISD where students make their dreams a reality. ISDworks! encourages learning-by-doing and cultivates teamwork by providing an exciting and collaborative setting.  The 500 sqm. contains equipment and a large collaborative space, as well as a lecture theatre for in-class activities and project development work. The equipment within the makerspace includes 3D scanners, 3D printers, laser cutters, arc welder, CNC, and many others, allowing users to delve deeper into focused areas, such as Bio Health, Marina Technology, and AI Design. 


Once prototypes are designed and fabricated, the space also has equipment for ergonomic testing. This includes eye gaze trackers, motion analysis equipment, and numerous other sensors to monitor forces and posture.
