Digital Media Studio, Tech Desk, and Technology Services.
The Digital Media Studio (DMS) is an open multimedia lab for the Appalachian State University campus. The purpose of the DMS is to provide access to current software and hardware, but most of all we provide help using digital media tools and technologies.
The Tech Desk allows patrons to check out digital equipment and accessories for personal use. Also, media conversion, a 3D printer, and large-format printing.
A makerspace is a place where users of all skill levels can come together to bring their ideas to life by “making” things. Students, faculty and staff at Appalachian State University will be able to use the space to access tools, learn new skills, and create things both for academic and personal use. A variety of workshops will be provided for those who want to learn more about our maker options.
