Let your ideas take flight!

You decide to turn right. You see a vibrant poster pasted outside the Materials Science Studio, where Applied Learning Programme (ALP) and activities take place.

Someone taps your shoulder from behind. When you turn around, a student nudges you to enter the ALP Room.

'Take a look at this green box here. It’s like a mystery box we open up each lesson to see how we can use our knowledge of materials science to solve real-life problems. You see this prototype of 'warning bathroom tiles'. These are tiles that would change colour when the floor is wet and thus slippery. The colour change would warn the elderly to be careful,' Intan says.

You are hooked to the idea of being able to prototype solutions with the studio’s 3D printers. But is it difficult?
