Where ideas become action—explore tools, technologies, and collaborative spaces that help you create, experiment, and turn innovation into impact.
The URI Library Innovation Labs provide students and faculty with access to interdisciplinary spaces, emerging technologies, and hands-on support that turn ideas into action. We support academic coursework, creative production, research, and entrepreneurial exploration by offering tools for media production, prototyping, immersive technologies, and collaborative work. Through training, mentorship, and flexible access to equipment and spaces, the Innovation Labs empower the URI community to experiment, learn by doing, and develop practical skills that extend beyond the classroom.
