The Zeanah Engineering Complex will meet the growing instructional, research, and student services needs of the Tickle College of Engineering, which has nearly doubled its enrollment in the past decade. A key fixture of the building will be state-of-the-art instructional spaces and fabrication laboratories for undergraduate engineering students. Also, the building will house the nation’s sixth-ranked nuclear engineering department (its instructional spaces, its faculty offices, and its research laboratories), and provide the college with professional research suites adaptable enough to accommodate a range of engineering sub-disciplines.
