Maker Hub
Welcome to the George Fox University Maker Hub Wiki!
The Maker Hub is the GFU College of Engineering space for engineering and design. It is a 15,000 square foot space located in Klages, and it consists of several design areas including work spaces, meeting rooms, technical shops, and a central toolroom. There is a 6,000 square foot central room known simply as "The Hub" which provides a large work area with benches and tools for general making activities. The Maker Hub was designed to serve the needs of the engineering program, including senior design, servant engineering, engineering principles, and other engineering courses and projects. The potential exists to service a broader set of projects for other majors at the university.
