Specifically, through an event centered upon a musical performance byan acclaimed percussion ensemble Third Coast Percussion that is artist-in-residence at theuniversity, WAVES demonstrates how experimentation and analysis—typicallyassociated with the sciences—and creative design—typically associated with the arts—figure strongly in both domains.The WAVES program was offered as a half-day event, shown in Figure 1, during thespring of 2014

Through the creation and continued funding of these spaces,access to rapid prototyping technology has allowed for fast, straightforward project developmentacross the engineering disciplines. While many hypothesize that students’ participation withinthese facilities has a positive impact on their educational experiences and outcomes, there is littleempirical data that describes how and to what extent individuals are impacted by exposure to amakerspace.In this paper, we seek to understand how the use of a university makerspace in a course projectimpacts students’ engineering
