UMKC's Innovation Studio, located in the new Robert W. Plaster Free Enterprise and Research Center provides the Kansas City Community access to new technologies for rapid prototyping. The public is welcome to use the Studio's various labs to manipulate 3D models using augmented or virtual reality tools, print those models in the 3D printing lab, or build working prototypes in a fully equipped fabrication shop.

"The Plaster Center is a resource for our community. From independent makers to entrepreneurs and innovators, our lab spaces are available for them to experiment and explore new technology, new innovations in materials and breakthroughs in application and design," UMKC Chancellor C. Mauli Agrawal Said. The Innovation Studio is located on the 2nd floor of the Robert W. Plaster Free Enterprise and Research Center.

Students, companies, and the public are invited to learn more about the Innovation Studio during one of our open houses.
