Tsungming Tu Complex (TTC)
This is the Tsungming Tu Complex (TTC). This can be considered the central headquarters for a lot of the STEM majors. As an engineering student, you may have all your major classes in here. This is the place where we are always pushing the bounds of what an engineer is and what we can accomplish. One former student tour guide's first-year computational engineering class worked on mini autonomous Amazon Warehouse robots that could post to Twitter to let our professor know when the retrieval task has been accomplished. In their Engineering design class, they created flowmeters to aid in the COVID-19 ventilator crisis. So, needless to say the School of Engineering at Tufts focuses on challenging their students as well as producing civically engaged minds.
Adjoining the buildings in the center of the complex is the Hendrix Atrium. This is a social center for Tufts students to study, collaborate, and work on homework or projects. We also have a maker's space called NOLOP where you can meet all if your design needs and create prototypes with a bevy of assistive tools such as the 3D printer and the Laser Cutter. There are multiple computer labs for direct access to programs like SolidWorks, Inventor, Adobe suites; programs that can also be accessed virtually using the on-campus VPN. And though these spaces were designed for our engineering students, they are resources for all Tufts students regardless of their major or school.
Our engineering facilities are not limited to the TTC but are campus-wide. Down the street on Boston Avenue you’ll find Bray Lab, our machine shop supported by student workers to aid you in all your fabrication and design needs. Any Tufts student can come and get trained in all tools ranging from the band-saw to the CNC mill.
Engineering is integrated into the overall community and Engineers are not just limited to engineering spaces. Engineering students at Tufts are student-athletes, activists, dancers, musicians, entrepreneurs, and so much more. Tufts engineers are not defined by their majors are have the liberty to explore our interests at this liberal arts institution.
