Located in Werth Tower, the UConn Innovation Zone is open to all students, faculty, and staff. We offer three cutting-edge facilities including our inaugural Makerspace, the Recording and Editing Studio (REC), and the Emerging Tech Center (ETC). The Innovation Zone creates an encouraging environment, where UConn students can bring their projects from ideas to reality. Our Maker Specialist Staff is here to guide, train, and support everyone who comes into our space.
