Access our equipment reservation form here. Users signed up on the reservation form will receive priority access to equipment over walk-in users.

Note: Reserving equipment is not the same as scheduling a training. Please talk to the MILL staff to schedule a training for a piece of equipment.

To view equipment specs and theory, please see the MILL Wiki’s Equipment page and the SOPs listed below. For our distributable software, visit our software page.

If you want to use a piece of equipment that is not available at The MILL, please see the list of MSE department-run labs or contact Dr. Masood Ebrahimi.
