Learning, Community, and 3D Printing
We aim to provide meaningful experiences for individuals looking to become more involved in the 3D printing environment.
As a member of 3D4E, you will have the unique opportunity to learn, design, prototype, create, and innovate. The only limit is your imagination. We thrive on interdisciplinary teamwork. In engaging new and diverse perspectives, we have found the key to collaboration and advancement in our communities.
​
We provide hands-on learning experiences, open access to our lab and printers, opportunities for internships with start-up companies, and the chance to give back to your community. Best of all, no experience is necessary. Join today, contribute, and build your own tomorrow!
