Sophia Brueckner Named MIT Fab Academy Global Instructor

Stamps Associate Professor Sophia Brueckner has been selected as one of eight global faculty for MIT’s Fab Academy.

The Fab Academy is an intensive, five-month program that teaches students to envision, design, and prototype projects using digital fabrication tools and machines. It is a multi-disciplinary and hands-on learning experience that empowers students to learn-by-doing and inspires them to make stuff locally to become active participants in sustainable cities and communities. There are 2000+ Fab Labs in 100+ countries.

Sophia Brueckner recently spent a week working in a remote Fab Lab above the arctic circle in Norway, where she developed digital fabrication curricula and processes with international Fab Lab instructors.
