Trustees Approve $5 Million Investment in
Science and Engineering Facilities
At its January 24 meeting, the University’s
Board of Trustees approved a $5 million
renovation and 25,000-square-foot facility
expansion for science, engineering, and
mathematics. According to President
White, the University has secured
$1.15 million.
The original Science Center, built in
1973, underwent its last major expansion
in 1991 to accommodate a growing nursing
program and new engineering programs.
Nursing has since relocated to the Health
Sciences Center, leaving additional
classroom and office space that can be
renovated and expanded to address science
and engineering facility needs for the next
ten years and beyond.
Phase One, beginning in May, will
focus on human biology labs that are
currently in the Engineering and Science
building. When completed, students will
learn in state-of-the-art gross anatomy,
human st ruc ture and
function, and anatomy and
physiology labs dedicated to
their respective functions.
Phase Two will be more
comprehensive as it includes
t he relocat ion of t he
University’s Physical Plant
from the current Service
Center to Harriman and
South Halls on the south
edge of campus. Campus
Safety will set up its main
office for serving students
in the Stevens Student
Center, and the grounds,
automotive, and inventory departments
will also relocate. Once vacated, the Service
Center will be completely renovated
to hold seven chemistry labs. Moving
these labs to this building will allow the
engineering department to expand within
the Engineering and Science Center.
Finally, four current classrooms will
be renovated and become biomedical and
mechanical engineering’s vibration labs
and senior design computational labs. A
barn, currently being used by the Grounds
Department, will be transformed into
engineering dirty labs for additional team
and project manufacturing space.
In all, the renovation project will
provide 46,361 total square feet of
academic space. As a result, students in
science, engineering, and math will have
top-flight academic facilities that will meet
the growing enrollment and research needs
of these programs for at least a decade.
