Welcome to the TEC Lab Makerspace!

  • The TEC Lab Makerspace was founded as a place for you to Tinker, Envision, and Create!
  • The links on the left side of the guide list many (but not all) of the items we have on hand for you to use in your creativity.
  • It is located in Room 125 (the TEC Lab) and Room 014 (the TEC SPACE) of the Gardner-Harvey Library (GRD) on the Middletown campus.
  • Read our mission statement
  • We are celebrating our 10th Anniversary! We were founded in the Fall of 2014, and have been providing the tools and guidance for making things ever since. Watch a slideshow of our progress in "Ten Years of the TEC Lab: a Makerspace for Middletown
    2014 to 2025
