Makerspace

At VCU’s Makerspace, innovation starts with hands-on experience. Whether you’re building your first 3D-printed prototype or cutting precision parts on a laser system, our Makerspace training courses give you the tools – and the confidence – to bring your ideas to life.

Led by faculty experts at VCU’s College of Engineering and grounded in real-world application, the Makerspace bridges the gap between theory and practice, empowering participants to design, fabricate and problem-solve across disciplines. From hand tools and 3D printing to mills, lathes, and fabrication techniques, you’ll gain practical skills that enhance creativity, employability and technical mastery.
