Our Story
Manufacturing has always been seen as this mysterious, complex world that only engineers and factory workers could understand. But what if it didn't have to be that way?
Mad Scientist in Residence was born from a simple observation: the gap between the fascinating science of making things and how it's taught is enormous. Traditional manufacturing education often focuses on formulas and theory, leaving students disconnected from the wonder of creation.
We believe that everyone should understand how their world is made. From the smartphone in your pocket to the chair you're sitting on, everything around us has a story of materials, processes, and creative problem-solving.
Our approach is different. We start with curiosity, add interactive tools, and blend scientific accuracy with approachable explanations. The result? Learning experiences that stick, inspire, and empower people to see manufacturing as the creative, innovative field it truly is.
