Courses

The courses supported by the Makerspace include: 

PHYSCI 70: Introduction to Digital Fabrication

This introductory course covers a range of fabrication skills targeted to beginners. Students are introduced to popular cutting-edge microcontrollers as opposed to making them from scratch, allowing for more time to be dedicated to sensor design and fabrication, programming, and skill integration for final projects. 

PHYS S-12: Introduction to Digital Fabrication

This Harvard Summer School course covers a range of fabrication skills targeted to beginners of all age groups. Students are introduced to popular cutting-edge microcontrollers as opposed to making them from scratch, allowing for more time to be dedicated to sensor design and fabrication, programming, and skill integration for final projects. 

Past courses include: 

 

MIT MAS 863: How to Make (Almost) Anything

This intensive course covers a range of skills from the ground up including electronics design, programming, and 3D design, with an emphasis on designing and fabricating circuitboards. The Makerspace supported Harvard students' participation in this course from 2013-2022.
