It's important we are able to keep the pulse of campus, but also, it's important that we allow student to show off their work. We can do this by creating a "Terpfolio" that showcases all of the great projects (big, and small) that make UMD students proud to be in this environment.</span>

<div><div><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(put stuff here0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">I&E can be scary, sometimes. It's daunting to consider the complexities associated with a campus of innovators, but at the end of the day, we feel I&E is a great way to make higher education more engaging and fun. It's not about getting students to create start-ups;''it's about getting students to create.''</span><div><br/></div></div></div>

*<span style="font-size: 12px">Maker spaces should and could be available for ALL students! Think of the invention and spark that could happen if we as students knew physical spaces where we could go to test our new ideas. This program *Program leverages existing resources and spaces and would , provide assistance for finding or making physical space for new startups. *Students would be able to search through an online platform and mobile app that connects individual students and student groups with available immediate, temporary, short and long-term spaces. The program and *Program task team would have documented a document network of spaces on campus and their availability, which could be seen through a *Interface: map interface on the system. If no space exists, students can contact mDIL (Maryland Design Impact Lab) and request a task team to design a temporary flex-space. This method would thereby provide a need and direction for students looking for innovation space that may not be part of an existing start up, or part of the Engineering or business school. In addition, this service will also give mDIL interdisciplinary design teams the opportunity to practice applying their developing ideation, fabrication and implementation skillsets to address a need.</span>*'''Team Leader: ''' Open Position – Team Leader TBD*'''Milestones:'''
