Education Projects

Michigan Technological University in Houghton, Michigan, envisioned a new campus facility to house aquatic research laboratories and classrooms, and support researchers and students working with Great Lakes biological, chemical, and physical studies.

The project added approximately 31,000 gross sf over seven levels, to be used as offices, classrooms, and seminar rooms, and included the addition of approximately 20,000 gross sf in the existing building to create new classrooms/laboratories.

To support the growing student population preparing for health profession careers, GVSU needed to offer the necessary laboratory research space to provide for student and faculty advancement.

The WMU Grand Rapids campus served primarily graduate-level programs in business, engineering, health and human services, education, and counseling.

Tremendous growth of GVSU’s nursing and health professions programs called for an expansion of the existing Cook DeVos Center for Health Sciences building located in the “Medical Mile” of downtown Grand Rapids.

GVSU’s steady growth over many years has resulted in the need for a variety of new facilities on the Allendale Campus.

Since their inception, the engineering programs at Hope College have experienced consistent growth. Due to this sustained expansion, many of the courses and labs have been held in spaces converted from other programs within VanderWerf Hall.

The design and construction of the Daniel and Pamella DeVos Center for Interprofessional Health project responds to the tremendous growth of GVSU’s academic programs in the Kirkhoff College of Nursing and the College of Health Professions.
