Expansion Project
Thanks to more than $10 million in private donations, The Collins College of Hospitality Management is undergoing a significant building expansion.
Construction is set to begin in October 2013, and is projected to be completed by the summer of 2015.
The Collins College Expansion Project comprises two new buildings: a classroom and faculty building and a student commons building. They will be designated as Buildings 72 and 73.
The classroom/faculty building will be used for faculty workspace and classrooms. The faculty workspace will include two executive director offices, an executive admin and lobby space, six faculty offices, a conference room, storage, two 24-station graduate student classrooms, two 48-station lecture rooms and a 32-station lecture room. The student commons will have a graduate student social space, two group study rooms, a spacious student recreation area and a "Grab n' go" food/beverage cart.
"The Collins College Expansion and Upgrades" blog is available online as an interactive tool to keep the public up-to-date with the latest renovations and phases of the expansion project.
