The lab provides an atmosphere of ingenuity and collaboration, dedicated workspace, and a multitude of tools and technologies to enable projects in any discipline including:

Boarding students live in three residence halls, where they gain independence and are immersed in school life that extends well beyond the classroom. Their island location keeps boarding students busy with a myriad of weekend activities. Life-long friendships are forged at HPA, with 25 nations represented in our boarding population, it is easy to make connections and develop a strong sense of community.
