Curriculum is built around existing open source tools for various enterprises.

2-4 Year Curriculum Specifics

  • IPM 101. Includes microscopy, compost tea, greenhouse, aquaponic, outdoor, food forest, and other. General tools of the trade, common pests, are covered to produce resilient, integrated operations which work on Ecology first, and tabula rasa methods as the second choice.
  • Open Source Lab - covers common analytical lab tools from microscopy, spectroscopy, lasers, biofeedback, chemistry, carbon, water, and electrolysis lab. Measurement of pressure temperature, humidity, others plus their controls. Includes photography, photogrammetry, and 3D scanning. Heating elements. Drones. Probes and sensors, IoT. Data collection tion and visualization of different formats, including basics of statistics and analytics.
  • Tool and Die 101 - design and fabrication of everything from tubing extruder dies, extruder screws, annular cutters, saw blades, various and sundry cutting, punching dies, and foundry molds. Blacksmithy 101, Coppersmithy 101.
  • Automation - basics of DC and AC automation, including encoding, up to robotic arms. Automatic controls of CNC machines, industlstrial processes, and ecological systems.
  • Housing 101 - design and build of housing and associated machines focusing on modularity and Extreme Manufacturing. Design of houses, house modules, and building materials. Build and operation of heavy equipment for housing.

Crowdsourced Curriculum

We will invite feedback from open source developers on the things they would like to learn (practical and theoretical) if they were given unlimited access to a research and training facility with a candy-store of tools and experimental labs - for a 3 month period.
