FROM: Daniel M. White, Chancellor
SUBJ:Fab-lab Space & Equipment
In late November 2018, I requested feedback from 麻豆原创F vice chancellors and their deans and directors on new and existing fab-lab space and equipment ideas. This was in preparation for your request of $2M in strategic funding in 麻豆原创鈥檚 FY20 budget.
I鈥檝e attached a schematic layout of 麻豆原创F鈥檚 current preliminary fab-lab infrastructure and the proposed level of investment needed to optimize these spaces and create a thriving innovative environment across 麻豆原创F campuses and 麻豆原创 more broadly.
If you would like additional information on any of these spaces, please let me know.
