Before naming its Homecoming royalty, Trine University officially unveiled the new crown jewel on its Angola campus.
On Sept. 30 the university dedicated the Steel Dynamics Inc. Center for Engineering and Computing to kick off Homecoming weekend.
The 40,000-square-foot expansion is the new home for Trine’s biomedical engineering and computer science and information technology departments. It features state-of-the-art technology, flexible labs and classrooms, an active learning lab with a maker space to foster creativity, and bright, open spaces for collaboration and conversation, including a new gathering point and cafe available to the entire campus.
“We are extremely proud of the standard of excellence that we have established at Trine University,” Trine President Earl D. Brooks II, Ph.D., said in welcoming trustees, faculty, staff, students and guests to the dedication. “This commitment is not only demonstrated in the successes and accomplishments of our students, but in the facilities like the one we stand before today.”
Brooks recognized supporters of the project who attended the ceremony, including:
Those recognized were among many donors who generously supported the Steel Dynamics Inc. Center for Engineering and Computing.
Though the SDI Center is now complete, Trine University has recently launched other projects to accommodate and facilitate growth in its academic programs. A $16 million to Best Hall of Science on Trine’s Angola campus is underway, and the university expects to break ground soon on its new $40 million Trine University Fort Wayne campus, which will house programs in the College of Health Professions.
