Permit holders who have setup an account can purchase some materials from the TEAM Lab for academic or departmental use (The TEAM Lab can not make purchases for personal use). This includes both hardware such as nuts and bolts and materials such as wood, metal, and plastic. For permit holders who have paid either the materials or research fee, some materials may be available at no cost. A 15% mark-up is applied to the cost of all purchases to cover materials and services overhead.
In order to set up an account with the TEAM Lab you will need to fill out the account setup form below and turn it in to the TEAM Lab. An approved UW funding number (see your department’s financial specialist for how to get a funding number) is required on the form.
