Zane State College (ZSC) serves the Appalachian Ohio region, an area characterized by low wages, high unemployment, and low educational attainment. It’s specific service district includes Muskingum, Guernsey, and Noble counties, but due to the College’s strong history with dual enrollment, now College Credit Plus, and recognized programs of excellence such as its Choose Ohio First programs, ZSC has a broad reach that includes student enrollment from approximately 20 counties. The IDEA Lab at Zane State College opened winter 2016. IDEA stands for Invention, Design, Engineering, and Art. The IDEA Lab is a makerspace focusing on product development and prototyping. The IDEA Lab combines DIY (do-it-yourself) with education. A makerspace located on a college campus is ideal and very condusive to informal and formal leanring. We provide advanced equipment including 3D printers, laser cutters, wood working tools, CNC equipment and professional prototyping expertise/assistance. Our goal is to have an impact on the development of new businesses, creating new jobs, retaining current jobs, and advancing our economic impact.
