|---|---|
| Safety 101 | Safety 101 is a prerequisite course for access to undergraduate labs, facilities, and support from engineering services. If you haven’t already, please complete this course. This course is free and online on Canvas. Click here for more information. |
| Safety | If you have questions about safety, or if you need to pickup your safety 101 sticker please email: safety@ece.ubc.ca |
| Dedicated Facilities | Project labs: Teams requiring access to a project lab for the duration of the term can submit a request by emailing: engservices@ece.ubc.ca. CC: your Capstone project supervisor This lab has benches with the standard setup of test equipment (Soldering iron, DMM, oscilloscope, waveform generator, and DC power supplies). MCLD Meeting Rooms: 2005, 2007, 2009, 2017, 2035 After 5:00PM and all day on week ends all ECE students have access to MCLD ALCs: 3008, 3014, 3018 |
| Card access | If you find you do not have card access to the ALCs or the capstone meeting rooms please email: access@ece.ubc.ca |
| Facility deficiencies | facilities@ece.ubc.ca |
| Capstone Equipment Pool | The Capstone Equipment pool is a collection of items (e.g. A/V equipment, instrumentation, etc.) that are available for you to loan for your capstone project. For more information on what is available and to loan an item click here |
| PCB Design and Assembly | Design: For PCB design, Altium is generally used at ECE. For information on access to Altium designer click here. Altium offers tutorials on how to create your own PCB. Click here to visit Altium education. If you need support with the design of your PCB, please consult your TA. Assembly: PCB Assembly includes taping out a PCB and if necessary assembly services. For fabrication instructions click here. Note, you will need to login using your ECE credentials to see this page. If you choose to assemble your own PCB, you may book the Electronics Assembly. See the row below for more information. |
| Electronics Assembly | Electronics Assembly is a bookable and supervised space with dedicated workstations to help with PCB board assembly, PCB reworking, and circuit testing with advanced instrumentation. For more information and to book a session, click here |
| 3D Printing | For assistance or questions, please email 3d@ece.ubc.ca |
| eWorkShop Services (CNC Machine Shop) | Access mechanical fabrication support for Capstone projects through the ECE Machine Shop. Explore available services like cutting, milling, turning, welding, and more at Shop Capabilities Request raw materials such as aluminum, steel, pipes, tubes, and wood, or submit detailed shop service requests with mechanical drawings. Capstone projects typically require financial authorization (e.g., speedchart/worktag). 🔨Use this Request Materials Form for unfinished materials (e.g.: wood plank) ⚙️Use this WorkShop Request Form for mechanical fabrication needs (e.g.: custom metal gears) |
| Waste disposal | If your capstone project has leftover items or waste that you would like to dispose (e.g. batteries, 3D print material, metal, etc.) and you need assistance with their proper disposal, please email: facilities@ece.ubc.ca |
