The Information Technology and Engineering (ITE) Building will provide much needed space for teaching, computational research, and student projects for the School of Engineering and Applied Science. The ITE Building is one of several new buildings that are part of the University’s science initiative focused on sustaining the ongoing
work of existing faculty and attracting new researchers. The ITE building will occupy a prominent location at the corner of Whitehead Road and Stadium Road adjacent to Olsson Hall. The project will consist of a five story, 100,000 gsf building with a basement and penthouse mechanical space.

This new research facility will feature modern architectural features and will help to define the south entrance to the science and engineering precinct. The main entrance to the ITE Building will be on Engineer’s Way and the new building will be connected to Olsson Hall at the basement level. The focus of the ITE Building will be Information Technology and the building will provide new space for classroom laboratories, research laboratories, departmental and faculty offices, and a 150 seat auditorium. The ITE Building will be designed and constructed concurrently with the College of Arts and Sciences Physical and Life Science Research Building and is to be delivered on a fast-track schedule.

Project construction is scheduled for completion summer 2011.
