Make:able 2025

On Monday, May 12 our 7 Make:able teams presented their final projects to their community members. They have been working on them since October. Check out this recap of what the teams did! To see each team's video, check out hub.uu.edu/makeable/2025.

Make:able in an international design challenge, in which students get to know someone in their community living with a disability and try to create a product through 3D printing and other maker technologies to improve that individual's daily life. This is our fourth year to participate, and it is always amazing! Thank you, Therapy & Learning Center for all of your help and support!
