Our facilities at UCF’s Physical Sciences Building room 440 (PSB 440) use keycard access to enter lab spaces. Please follow the steps below so we can help you start your prototype fabrication today!
Getting a UCF ID Card
If you already have an ID card, student or staff. You are ready to go!
If you do not a UCF ID card, you will need to visit UCF’s Card Services.
Request Door Access
Now that you have an ID you can request door access through COSIT.
