On-Campus Facilities

We are proud to offer more than 21 labs used for scheduled classes and nine additional labs used by students outside of their scheduled classes to experience hands-on learning using advanced technologies and tools to serve a real purpose in the world. You can access these labs from day one as a freshman, giving you an opportunity to bring your ideas to life. Here are just a few of our dynamic technology and engineering resources and workspaces.

 

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Lab

The Al Lab provides RDP students with a space to collaborate on diverse Al and machine learning projects. Each year features different projects with no continuity from one year to the next.

Computer-Aided Engineering Lab

Discover how to design in 3D, lay out drawings and simulate conditions to arrive at potential engineering solutions.

Cyber Center of Excellence (CCE)

The CCE empowers cybersecurity expertise through ethical cyber practices, fostering collaboration among learners, professionals and industry leaders to drive innovation in cyber technology.

Dynamics Lab

Apply physics concepts to complex real-life situations by using static boards, pulley systems and other tools.

Electrical Materials Lab

Explore electrical materials using electron and atomic force microscopes and learn how molecular properties impact product.

Intelligent Systems Lab

Through interdisciplinary collaboration and technology, we aim to contribute to the development of intelligent systems that can enhance human capabilities, solve complex problems and drive societal progress.

Mechanical Materials Lab

Determine material properties for appropriate design selections by testing, analyzing and evaluating different materials.

Robotics/Automation Lab

Explore and apply electrical and mechanical processes using electromechanical systems and 4-axis robot arms.

Transport Phenomena Lab

Focus is placed on utilizing a piping system, including fluid flow, heat transfer and mass transfer, in this lab.

Virtual Reality (VR) Lab

The VR Lab is designed as a dedicated space for students to develop and work on their VR projects outside of class. Unlike teaching or research labs, it serves primarily as a room equipped with computers for project work.
