Abstract
This paper will present a review of university maker spaces compiling operational models (e.g., student-run, lab technician-run, faculty-run), pedagogical integration (e.g., capstone requiring use of Maker Spaces), and administrative details (e.g., budgeting, safety, and oversight). Based on this review of university maker spaces, a discussion will describe common trends, advances and innovations, and perceived benefits to the university community. The goal of this paper is to create a baseline of current state-of-the-art with respect to university maker spaces.
