It is impossible to gain permission without the approval of the administration to the student project or innovation group. Going directly to the top of the school's admisistration may not result in any progress. A single student proposing an idea is a small voice and does likely not convice the insitituion to spend large, or even small amounts of money on the project. The best method is to start from the bottom with graduate students, lab instructors, or instructors. Teaming with other students and working up will create a large pyramid of support and show the insitition the students are serious. It may not even be necessary to obtain academic approval depending on the project. Getting a strong start and being able to show some good data is a great way to gain permission.</span></span>

As a result, some schools are more welcoming to innovation and change than others simply because of where it is located.</span></span>
