This will include the develop- ment of over 23,000 sq.ft of shop space, including a manufacturing shop, proto- typing lab, core logging and exploration shop, virtual reality lab, and an alternative energy lab.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SPACE

8 shops (carpentry, mining exploration, welding, manufacturing, prototyping, alternate energy, mining simulation, virtual reality) to be utilized for technology development, research, and training.

Students engaged in research get to work with industry partners to find solutions to their technological needs.
