Engineering Facilities Expansion and Renewal
Across Penn State University Park, a multi-year initiative to transform the physical space in support of engineering education and research is taking shape.
Modern classrooms and laboratories, maker spaces and workshops, areas for collaboration, and administrative offices have opened as part of the facilities transformation for the University’s largest academic college.
Following the 2023 and 2024 openings of the Engineering Design and Innovation Building and the Engineering Collaborative Research and Education Building, respectively, attention has shifted to multiple projects that will dramatically alter Central Campus. A key part of this phase is the complete renovation of the historic Sackett Building, which is slated for completion in 2027.
“Our ongoing facilities transformation is a testament to the breadth and importance of engineering to society and to Penn State.”
