DESIGN LAB

Special Experiences

Being a scientist isn’t just about what you know; it’s about what you know how to do. When you visit Design Lab, you’ll encounter design challenges, lots of raw materials, and opportunities to engineer solutions to real-world problems. Challenges in Design Lab invite you to take risks, share your ideas, and get new perspectives on engineering and design.

Design Lab is made possible with generous support from Phyllis and Ivan Seidenberg, the Verizon Foundation, the Golden Family Foundation, the Office of Naval Research, and the Xerox Foundation. The Verizon Foundation provided seed funding for Design Lab that supported the participation of teachers to contribute to and inform the exhibition.
