The Discovery Center leverages the exceptional creativity and technical skills of UW-Stout faculty and students to develop innovative solutions for real-world problems. Collaborative projects challenge students to apply classroom knowledge and problem-solving skills through interaction with other students, faculty and industry. Students work individually or in teams to develop an understanding of the problem, determine and weigh potential solutions and execute implementation of the selected solution.
 
The Discovery Center is capable of engaging in projects of varied scope and scale. Industry partners are encouraged to contact the Discovery Center for an assessment of their project ideas. The Discovery Center is designed around self-sufficiency; fees for services are determined based on the type and extent of the services required for the project. Funding for certain collaborative projects may be obtained from grant funding or other sources.
