Vision

The vision of the USEK Laboratories is to become a leading hub of learning and research development, innovation, and analysis services where the trifecta of transformative education, cutting-edge equipment, and high-quality analytical facilities converge.

Mission

The mission of the USEK Laboratories, anchored in Education, Research, and Analysis Services, is to serve as vibrant hubs of learning and innovation, providing comprehensive active training to students, performing pioneering research that pushes the boundaries of knowledge, while offering expert analytical capabilities to support academic and industrial projects.

Our laboratories combine practical skills with conceptual knowledge, foster interdisciplinary collaboration, guarantee adherence to safety and ethical standards, and share valuable insights with the broader community, thus contributing to academic excellence, industry advancement, and societal progress.

Following student-centered objectives for practical work, the USEK Laboratories work synergistically with all academic units to provide practical experience, tactile visual learning methods, and inquiry-based activities for students in support of lectures, R&D, and innovation. Shared facilities are an integral part of education at USEK to give students hands-on means to generate and experiment with innovative ideas and inventions to enhance their educational experiences. Not only do students access these labs for educational purposes or senior design projects, but they are also the resources for learners to pursue their entrepreneurial aspirations.
