Brigham Young University Constructs Engineering Building

Brigham Young University began construction in May of 2016 on a new home for the Ira A. Fulton College of Engineering and Technology in Provo, Utah. Funded entirely by donors, the $80 million facility will feature a dedicated laboratory annex, a student innovation floor, and a prototyping shop. Housing the departments of chemical, mechanical, civil and environmental, and electrical and computer engineering, the five-story, 200,000-sf building will provide 158 faculty and administrative offices, 54 teaching and project labs, team meeting rooms, flexible learning spaces, and classrooms. The project was designed by VCBO Architects with Research Facilities Design (RFD) as laboratory programming and design consultant. Completion is expected by fall of 2018.
