Established in 2016, EML is as an experimental space where faculty, students, and staff from all disciplines could collaborate with industry and community. The lab’s mission is to evolve learning by creating tools and techniques using emerging media including Augmented, Mixed, and Virtual Reality.

The new IKBLC location is composed of two rooms: a public multi-station lab and presentation space and second room that can be used as a meeting room, demonstration space or development area.

The new space is open from 9am to 5pm on weekdays, offering lab time for classes and faculty members as well as regularly designated demonstration time.  For more information about EML, please visit eml.ubc.ca
