Design of Cyber-Physical Systems students with a prototype for evaluating post-earthquake structural damage. In celebration of UC Berkeley’s 150th birthday, we’re exploring Berkeley-driven design innovation from 1868 to today. Over the course of the year, we’ll take a look at researchers, creators, and makers who have been part of Berkeley’s Read more…
Design of Cyber-Physical Systems students with a prototype for evaluating post-earthquake structural damage. When the earliest precursors to today’s College of Engineering (then known as the colleges of Mechanic Arts, Mining, and Civil Engineering) were founded as part of the original University of California in 1868, a focus on infrastructure — power, Read more…
This spring, ten diverse student teams accessed project funding, Maker Passes, and other resources through a new grant program: the Jacobs Institute Innovation Catalysts. The program, made possible by the Eustace-Kwan Family Foundation, aims to help student designers unlock new potential in their projects. In classes, student organizations, and independently, Read more…

Since the Jacobs Institute’s launch in 2015, it has served as a gathering point for Berkeley’s diverse and ever-evolving design community. Students have long been at the center of this community, launching new clubs and initiatives in areas from human-centered methodology to virtual reality in the years leading up to Read more…

A reconfigurable lampshade, a portable scientific instrument, an affordable tool for surgery planning: these student projects may not seem to have much in common. Despite their wide-ranging focuses, however, all three are the products of courses that used resources in Jacobs Hall to explore digital fabrication technology during the fall Read more…
