Our Service Protocol
- Work Orders are to be submitted electronically to the scielectronics@ucalgary.ca email. If our techs have questions, they contact you directly. Scheduling a Video Call is also an option.
- Please do not come to the Electronics Shop without scheduling a visit. A Tech will instruct you on the proper protocols for in-person meetings.
- When delivering work to the Electronics Shop, please schedule a time in advance. If you cannot drop off an instrument due to weight or size, we can pick it up for you. There will be a charge for pick up and delivery.
- If you require a Tech to come to your lab, please communicate with the Shop through scielectronics@ucalgary.ca
- Techs will only work with 'on-site' equipment if it cannot be transported to the Electronics Shop.
