The University of Kansas is building a privately funded five- to six-story addition to Learned Hall, enabling consolidation of the School of Engineering's departments and programs in one facility. The addition will feature a new main entrance leading to a media-rich 250-seat lecture classroom/auditorium and administrative offices. Designed by Gould Evans Associates of Lawrence, Kan., the facility will include a 2,000-sf Environmental Engineering and Science Laboratory, 15 new labs, 25 GTA offices and 38 faculty offices. Slated for completion in June 2003, the project has a budget of $16,525,000 with an estimated construction budget of $12,970,000.
