智慧工坊 iLife Space

The iLife Space, funded by Sichuan University-Pittsburgh Institute (SCUPI), was born for innovation and entrepreneurship. It is a place for everyone to come and explore their passions using raw materials, tools, technology, repurposed items and imagination. People can work individually or collaboratively, using technology or drawing on the collective wisdom of those in the room to realize their ideas in iLife. This place is managed by SCUPI Technology and Science Association (TSA) and lab engineers.

ABOUT US

“I was afraid that manufacturing machines are too difficult to use. After the trainings, I had a better understanding of how the machines work and how to operate them. Then it turns out that machines like 3D printer are pretty easy, once you know how to configure the basic parameters.”

—Icey, student who received trainings of 3D printers from iLife Space.
