Building a Foundation for the Future
The Samuel Ginn College of Engineering at Auburn University has embraced an extraordinary
vision to become one of the top 20 engineering programs in the nation. The cornerstone
of the college's strategic plan to achieve this vision is the construction of
the state-of-the-art Sen. Richard C. and Dr. Annette N. Shelby Center for Engineering
Technology - a complex designed to advance technology development in a variety
of disciplines.
The engineering complex is part of a capital improvement plan that includes the
recent renovations of Ross Hall and Wilmore Laboratories and is designed to ensure
that the college has the infrastructure required to become a preeminent engineering
school. The creation of exceptional facilities will provide faculty and students
with the most advanced environment in which to teach and conduct research. This
complex is critical to the ability to recruit world-class faculty, attract the
brightest students and conduct leading-edge research that will power the economy
of the state and the region into the future.
"I was pleased to play a role in securing funding for this important educational facility. The modern classrooms coupled with the quality lab space will increase research funding and development efforts, and ultimately lead to job creation. I believe that continued investments in education will result in enhanced academic achievement for our students and economic growth for the state."
