What EML offers:

UBC’s Emerging Media Lab (EML) is an experimental lab space where faculty, students, and staff from all disciplines collaborate to evolve learning by creating tools and techniques using emerging media technologies.

EML provides lab resources and required expertise in design and programming to work with you to develop a proof-of-concept for your project idea. You and your project team will meet regularly, with you serving as principal investigator (PI) and subject matter expert.

Project teams include students and staff. The student workers on your team will be supported by EML staff. The team will help you to determine project scope, tasks, and experiment to find solutions to meet your project goals.

Timeline:

There are two main project intakes: one in September for the fall/winter term and one in May for the summer term.

After receiving a project proposal, a discovery meeting will be set up to determine feasibility and scope of your project. If selected, a project team and related resources will be assigned to begin work at the beginning of the summer or fall term.
