Taking a walking field trip sets you on a path to see one of our newest buildings (and the even newer trolley running overhead), places of innovation, engineering and creation.

The Media Teaching Lab offers undergraduate and graduate students production studios, editing bays, a vast array of equipment for checkout, and provides technical workshops to the entire UCSD community. You’ll have an opportunity to visit these spaces and see how such an undertaking can be established on your campus if desired.

The Qualcomm Institute offers state-of-the-art laboratory space and equipment, specializes in cutting-edge applications of technology and communication needs, and prototypes and builds enabling technologies. (3390 Voigt Dr – Google Maps Plus Code VQJ8+X2 San Diego, California)

The EnVision Arts and Engineering Maker Studio in the Structural & Materials Engineering (SME) Building is an experiential teaching facility where both engineering and visual arts students are empowered to think, design, make, tinker, break, and build again.

The new Design and Innovation Building houses not only classrooms and work spaces, but is also a space for students of all academic disciplines to test innovative ideas and apply theory to real-world experiences. We will visit The Basement which serves those who want to make a difference in the world by offering a place where students can take ideas and turn them into reality, creating startup companies. On the second floor is Maker Space UC San Diego where students are provided access to various creative modalities: 3D Print + Laser Cutter Studio, Wood + Foam Shop, Electronics Studio + CNC Machining Shop, (Matthews Lane – Google Maps Plus Code VQH9+Q3 La Jolla, San Diego, CA)
