University of Northwestern St Paul Builds New Engineering Program
When the University of Northwestern St. Paul, located in Minnesota, set out to build new labs while meeting USA degree accreditation requirements, they scoured the educational teaching equipment market for a supplier that could deliver:
- High-quality products and customer service
- Competitive prices
- Purpose-built equipment with teaching flexibility in mind
- A single supplier source for the majority of the practical teaching needs
“We chose TecQuipment because they ticked all the boxes and some more. They were great to work with from start to finish, from initial discussions at ASEE 2016 in New Orleans through to the more recent installation, training and commissioning in August 2018. Even when we encountered problems, the Lab Midwest team and TecQuipment dealt with the situation with smiles and joyfulness,” explained Rachel Friesen, Lab Technician at the University of Northwestern.
Flexible Teaching Requirements and Space Limitations
“Our current lab space was renovated from art studios and kitchens, which means space is a high concern”, explained Friesen. “This was another reason why we opted for TecQuipment products that are compact, while still being big enough for groups of students to work on them together.” In addition to this, they were looking for equipment that would run pre-set experiments, as well as offer flexibility for the teaching team to design their own lab experiments.
TecQuipment
TecQuipment designs, develops, and produces a comprehensive range of products for engineering training. The company is well known as a preeminent provider of technical teaching equipment for schools, colleges, universities, and industrial training centers worldwide.
TecQuipment operates a constant product improvement process to guarantee that the teaching equipment stays ahead of the competition and meets customers’ needs.
