How does JHC work?
The JHC concept is based on multidisciplinary student teams refining ideas into prototypes. The ideas may be connected to courses or come from students themselves, LUT Universities’ employees or LUT’s external stakeholders, such as business partners.
Special attention is paid to work safety:
◼ All users must register for the orientation course entitled J. Hyneman Center and read through the general rules of JHC.
◼ Students can access JHC with an access control tag after they pass the orientation test. The purpose of the test is to make sure everyone works safely and follows the same rules.
◼ A staff member is always there to help during JHC’s opening hours.
Rooms and machines can be booked through the Outlook calendar, in the same way as LUT meeting rooms.

How much does it cost to work at JHC?
right
Members of the LUT Universities community can use the tools and facilities for free and only pay for the materials they need. Materials are primarily purchased independently: courses purchase their own materials and individual users bring their own.
However, JHC has a range of nuts, bolts, resistors and similar small components needed for prototyping, which can be used freely. Wood or metal from the recycling bin can be used free of charge. Companies can contribute ideas, which students can use to build prototypes.

What machines are available?
We are continuously developing and updating our range of machinery and aim to meet users’ needs. In addition to conventional hand tools, JHC has devices such as a lathe, sewing machines, 3D printers and welding equipment.
The woodwork shop has tools such as circular saws, drills, sanders and cutters. The electronics stations have multimeters, oscilloscopes and soldering stations.
