Our classroom is 9-152.
If you consulted the registrar's site early on, you might have seen a different classroom.
We have moved to 9-152.
Building 9 is right on Mass Ave, just a few doors down from Lobby 7.
Once you enter on the first floor, you go up a few small steps into a glass-enclosed entranceway, and 9-152 is just inside that entranceway.
This room will also serve as your lab and study room, and it will be available for your use throughout the semester.
It is equipped with VR workstations that you can use for projects throughout the semester.
The workstations are equipped with Microsoft Mixed Reality headsets paired with MSI desktops containing GTX 1060 graphics cards.
