Student Opportunities

Hands-On Learning Beyond the Classroom

The Gainesville Hackerspace gives students a place to build, tinker, and bring ideas to life. With a $35/month student rate and 24/7 access to tools like 3D printers, laser cutters, CNC routers, sewing machines, and electronics benches, it’s a space built for learning by doing. Once trained, members are free to explore at their own pace in a supportive, self-directed environment designed to grow both skills and confidence.

Student Clubs Wanted — Let’s Build Together

We’re especially excited to connect with student clubs—whether you want to showcase a project, host a workshop, or just collaborate in a new space. The Hackerspace is home to makers, artists, engineers, and hobbyists who love sharing what they know and learning from others. If you’re passionate about creating, we’d love to meet you, support you, and help your club plug into a broader creative community.
If your club is interested in getting involved, reach out to our team—we’ll help you get set up, give you a tour, and find the best way to plug in. You can contact us through our contact page to start the conversation.
