The OPIM Department in the School of Business offers hands-on technology oriented workshops on a variety of topics of interest to the UConn community.
These workshops should provide an excellent learning opportunity, as well as a venue for the exchange of ideas among fellow members of the university. All workshops are held at the Gladstein Research Laboratory located in room 391 of the School of Business.
A workshop is an interactive, moderated lesson focusing on how to utilize a certain technology so students can walk away with a deeper understanding and potentially a new skill.
