| This page concerns Garage Physics phase II, a campus Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, focused on multidisciplinary project oriented learning for UW-Madison undergraduates. The center is envisioned to be a physical and virtual campus hub for project oriented student learning spanning the disciplines and schools of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The physical center itself will contain meeting and breakout rooms along the lines of WISCEL, and additional project workspaces, and tools. The virtual center will connect students to a network of facilities (e.g. student shops, media labs, WID rapid prototyping facility, art loft), resources (e.g. libraries, academic and career advising, international studies, UW Law, WARF, WEN), and spaces (e,g, ActiveX Zone, Physics Garage) and programs (e.g. UW Business School Certificate in Entrepreneurship, biomedical engineering, Entrepreneurial Residential Learning Community) with a focus on innovation and entrepreneurship throughout campus. | This page concerns Garage Physics phase II, a campus Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, focused on multidisciplinary project oriented learning for UW-Madison undergraduates.

The scaffolding for the Center will include an academic certificate program spanning the university. It will capitolize and augment FIGs and other small classes in discipline specific innovation and entrepreneurship and more general Great Ideas classes for first year students. The core of the program will include project development and project competitions for second and third year students. Capstone activities for fourth year students will include existing and new academic classes, independent research activity, and startups.
