Computer labs were rows of desktops in the past, but today’s student experience is about creativity and collaboration. NYU used design thinking to assess its student needs and develop a series of innovative makerspaces, a new service model, and new staff training program that achieved 95% satisfaction using a process other institutions can apply.

Outcomes: Assess the student experience on your campus * Select the right strategies to enable physical and digital making * Evaluate recruitment and training of staff for customer service
