The overall project consists of renovating, expanding and improving the laboratory facilities used primarily by the Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering. This Center will provide a place for integrated programming that encourages interdisciplinary projects and collaboration that will be a showpiece for prospective students, their parents and alumni.

Campaign Priorities

The Center

The College of Engineering & Science will transform the Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering area of the High Bay into an open, inviting and flexible area, fully activating the space for interdisciplinary opportunities relating to Sustainability and Smart Infrastructure. This space will provide an inspirational hub, creating a community of collaboration, engagement and communication among departments, faculty, staff and students, across the University, opening the doors to impactful interdisciplinary learning. Here, the curriculum comes alive as first-year students perform research with graduate students and faculty.

Introducing students to the magic of scientific experimentation as soon as possible opens countless possibilities for them. In our new Environmental Lab, students will use current technologies to investigate things like the composition of microbial communities, conduct water and air testing, analyze the effects of air pollution, model groundwater contamination and develop materials for Green Building applications.

The Student Engagement & Exhibit Space

The sense of community will be greatly enhanced by the repurposing underused mezzanine area into a space where students can meet to study, collaborate, exhibit and present projects.
