List of TLP Equipment and Materials

Additional Information:

  • We also have an extensive library of books available (Excel), non-fiction including text books.
  • Our Technology Loan Program has really taken off, so we recommend that you email us to make sure what you need is in, instead of just stopping by.
  • Attendance at our StarLab and 3D Printer Workshops is required before those check outs can take place.
  • Please be advised that there may be a wait on some items, particularly the Starlab. We may also need the equipment returned by a specific date.
  • It is very helpful if we know the date and estimated time you plan to stop by, just to make sure someone will be available to assist you.

StarLab Information

  • You must have attended our StarLab workshop to be able to check this item out.
  • Please call or email us to schedule the dates for check out.
  • There is a $30 maintenance fee for the StarLab. You may mail a check, payable to "UNCW CESTEM", to 601 S. College Rd. Wilmington, NC 28403-5976.

TLP Parking Information

  • There are parking spaces available for our visitors in front of our office building with signs labeled "CAT".
  • We recommend that you write "CESTEM" on a sheet of paper and leave it in your windshield, so everyone will know that your car will only be there for a short time.
  • For more detail, please see our location on the Interactive Campus Map [enter "626 MacMillan" in the search bar].

Department Meetings

  • K-12 School STEM Departments are welcomed to hold department meetings in the CESTEM office
  • Collaboration between offices presents a great opportunity for departments to see the tools offered for check-out through our Technology Loan Program.
