In January 2021, the engineering school opened a new collaborative research space to support the increase in faculty, students, and researchers in robotics.

Spanning two stories at the northern end of the EQuad building, the robotics lab includes an aerial drone-flying space, a mobile robot area, a “living lab” furnished like a home, and a prototyping area, as well as faculty offices, grad student desks, and space for a robotics lab manager and technical specialists. The goal is to allow a range of experimental techniques and easy cooperation among teams from varied disciplines.
