The new $10 million facilities for energy and automotive research at Michigan State University College of Engineering is set to provide a world-class environment for faculty and students to address some the world’s most urgent problems.
The ground was broken for the new facility in November 2005 following a successful fund-raising which saw about half of the cost of the project provided by donors including both major corporate sponsorship and substantial contributions from alumni. The new 30,000sqft. building is located on campus next to the Engineering Research Complex.
The laboratories were dedicated in August 2007 in a ceremony attended by Congressmen Mike Rogers and Peter Hoekstra and led by MSU President Lou Ann Simon who was joined donors and senior University officials. Work continues to fit out and equip all of the laboratories which is not expected to be completed until late 2008.
