Tennessee Technological University Student Priorities

Student Priority #1: 

With the addition of the iCube and iMakerspace to Tennessee Technological University's campus, a key resource for innovation and entrepreneurship is available for all students to utilize. The iCube hosts a virtual reality lab, brainstorming area and classroom, and the iMakerspace is loaded with machines like 3-D printers and lab space. Currently the space is used by engineering students, with a small proportion of business students. To introduce students of all majors to entrepreneurship and innovation both on campus and within this new resource, specialized pop-ups should be held that interest various underrepresented majors in the iCube. 



 For example, 3-D printed fish hooks for wildlife and fishery majors. Ashlin believes everyone has a need for innovation in their degrees, and feels these pop-ups are a way to do so.
