Imagine if you were able to walk in to the massive engineering and research facilities at MIT or NASA and be invited to access to anything you could need; to build anything you can conceive. Workshops, tools, supplies, and expert staff to help craft your personal dream into a tangible reality.
Imagine if instead of just a television show, Mythbusters, Mr.Wizard, and Bill Nye had an actual physical place where you could go and learn the basics of science and engineering, having them as your own personal mentor.
Think back and remember that one incredible teacher who changed your whole life because teaching was their passion, not just their career. Now imagine a university that hired only those “one in a million” teachers.
These, and thousands of other radical ideas, form the basis of the greatest experiment in science education in history. For the past fifteen years it has been the primary mission of The Geek Group to build just such a place, a university style campus where all of the rules are changed. The Center would encompass classrooms, advanced research and development facilities, prototypical fabrication and design shops, a museum, a convention center, and be a radical departure from traditional academia. A place designed to fill in the cracks of a traditional college environment; to work in cooperation with schools and universities all over the world.
