BeAM@Carolina is a network of makerspaces where students, faculty, and staff can join the University maker community in the design and creation of physical objects for education, research, entrepreneurship, and recreation. The BeAM network is equipped with emerging technologies like 3D printing, laser cutting, as well as wood and metalworking shops. Users can participate in open studios, training sessions, workshops, and host classes and group activities.
BeAM@Murray Hall is located on the first floor of Murray Hall, with an entrance from the courtyard. To access it, go through the brick arch in Venable Hall, which leads into the courtyard between Venable and Murray Halls. The BeAM makerspace is next to the Department of Applied Sciences, in a complex that also houses the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Marine Sciences.
Innovation is fundamental to Carolina’s culture of creativity and collaboration. The BeAM network encompasses four campus makerspaces where the Carolina community can create physical objects for education, research, entrepreneurship, and beyond. BeAM is a fantastic resource for any UNC-Chapel Hill student, faculty, or staff member. To get started, all users must complete BeAM Orientation to access the makerspaces in Murray Hall, Hanes Art Center, and Carmichael Residence Hall.
