Join us for a guided tour of the Wilson Student Team Project Center, a dynamic hands-on engineering space where University of Michigan students bring ambitious ideas to life. During the tour, visitors will explore the workshops, collaboration areas, and project bays used by student teams to design, build, test, and refine innovative vehicles, devices, and systems.

The tour highlights how the Wilson Center supports experiential learning, teamwork, creativity, and problem-solving outside the traditional classroom. Guests will learn about the student organizations and project teams that use the facility, see examples of current and past projects, and gain insight into the tools, resources, and support available to help students turn concepts into real-world solutions.
