- [00:00:03.904]I think Nebraska's special.
- [00:00:05.387]I think we are born makers.
- [00:00:07.094]I think from a very early age,
- [00:00:09.410]you know when you're four years old,
- [00:00:10.243]you're handed a pair of vice grips,
- [00:00:11.375]and you're expected to fix things.
- [00:00:14.443]And I want the maker space
- [00:00:15.561]at the Nebraska Innovation Studio
- [00:00:17.409]to be a place where we foster that talent.
- [00:00:19.563]The maker space is a place where students
- [00:00:21.290]and other community members
- [00:00:22.652]can come and get involved in making things.
- [00:00:25.008]We have an art studio,
- [00:00:26.288]we have a wood shop, a metal studio,
- [00:00:28.706]electronics, all kinds of different things you can use.
- [00:00:31.185]As an example, I 3D printed this violin.
- [00:00:33.989]There's lots of good opportunities
- [00:00:35.269]for students at Nebraska.
- [00:00:36.264]If you're an undergraduate,
- [00:00:37.179]I really encourage you to get involved
- [00:00:38.398]in undergraduate research.
- [00:00:40.023]It's a great experience for the students,
- [00:00:41.425]they get to be exposed to state of the art research,
- [00:00:43.863]and they learn some skills
- [00:00:45.184]that aren't traditionally taught in the classroom.
- [00:00:47.785]Maybe the thing I like the most about engineering
- [00:00:50.223]is that you can really make an impact
- [00:00:51.828]and do good things for people.
- [00:00:54.002](upbeat music)
