Texas A&M-Texarkana is planning to break ground in late May of 2024 on the Business, Engineering, and Technology Building (BET), a 53,500-sf facility housing those three interdisciplinary programs. The $45 million project also includes a renovation of the Science and Technology Building, which will connect to the new facility with walkways on the second and third floors.
The new three-story structure, designed by Treanor HL with Clark Contractors LLC as the construction manager at risk, will house the Center for Financial Literacy and Investment, mechanical engineering and design laboratories, and a 225-seat lecture hall/auditorium. The facility will allow the recently established College of Business, Engineering, and Technology to explore new academic programs, such as computer science, with a focus on machine learning and cybersecurity.
Construction will begin in June and substantial completion is expected in February 2026.
