The Area 51 Student Machine Shop is now open by appointment only for extra-curricular use.
All users must have authorized access via the COVID Access system and COVID Pass. Before an appointment is scheduled, extra-curricular access will need to be reviewed and approved.
To apply for extra-curricular access, students can email Sandi Lipnoski, Administrative Officer, slipnosk@mit.edu. The Student COVID Access Request Team will review submissions.
Please note that requests need to be made in advance as the process for shop access due to Covid precautions can take a week or more.
