Building Projects
Drive down University Avenue, and you’ll see a campus transforming around you.
When you have great faculty and great students, you must have great facilities in which to teach and learn.
A capital project is a construction project that aims to improve or maintain the infrastructure of the university. Those projects include expansions, renovations, new buildings, and other campus improvements that prepare us for the future.
As the Nistler College of Business & Public Administration continues to celebrate the completion of its new building, more new projects lie on the horizon.
Upcoming Capital Projects in Academic Affairs
The following projects rely on private support to become a reality. Contact the UND Alumni Association and Foundation to learn how you can build the future for students at the University of North Dakota.
STEM Complex
The University of North Dakota is answering an urgent need for a modern STEM Complex that will enable students, researchers, and faculty to thrive. The project will be designed to support collaborations between internal programs and external partners. The new STEM Complex is an opportunity to transform the environment in ways that enable wonder and discovery. The facility will:
- Break down barriers by bringing engineers, scientists, and mathematicians together in a way that our current facilities cannot.
- Enhance collaborations to accelerate the growth of industry in our region.
- Build the economy of the future by allowing companies to fully utilize the intellectual resources at UND, while giving our students and faculty the opportunity to work on real-world problems and address the most critical needs of our state and region.
Flight Operations Center
The new Flight Operations Center will reflect the quality of the world’s leading collegiate flight training program. Located at the heart of the UND Aerospace Flight Operations Complex, the project will:
- Update the connecting hangars and faculty/staff building
- Create a modernized space to streamline activities
- Showcase aviation excellence
Under Construction
The UND campus infrastructure has changed in a variety of ways in recent years. As we seek to build, enhance and maintain exceptional university facilities we strive to keep the campus and community informed about our various construction projects and future renovation planning. We have broken ground and construction is underway on these Academic facilities.
Merrifield Hall
The renovation of Merrifield Hall and surrounding sub-projects will make it one of the top instructional spaces on campus.
This project will support today's active-learning classrooms by providing:
- Proper technology (Wi-Fi access)
- Modern features (better lighting)
- Better spaces (reconfigurable classrooms and abundant common areas)
Campus Renewal
UND construction, planning and restoration updates.
