A substantial university budget has been allocated for the prototyping workshop, which will house wood and metalworking benches, hand tools, and equipment for model making, painting and surface finishing.

The workshop is planned to open as soon as machinery and equipment are procured. Students are expected to turn design ideas into physical models and prototypes and to experience materials and production processes hands-on.
Workshop use
Workshop use will follow occupational health and safety and equipment-use training given under the supervision of the responsible technician.
