Members can remain updated by visiting our website and browsing through our projects, and our general meetings will be open to all students for organization and project updates. - Austin Rempel, junior product design major, had this to say about being a member of 3D Printed Prosthetics:
“This club has allowed me to understand the enjoyment and fulfillment of engineering outside of just classes. The ability I’ve had to learn through real world problems and applications in this club is what has given me hope for a future in engineering, and I will always be incredibly grateful for that.”
