The University of Louisville is taking a huge step into the future.

The school is building a new hub for engineering students that will feature high tech labs and classrooms.

The additional space will include research labs that will give students hands on experience with electric vehicles, cyber security, renewable energy and more.

While Kentucky's production of these workers has grown, UML says the Commonwealth still lags behind the national average, UVA has long led the charge in driving innovation, economic growth and providing students with the education experience they need to succeed in the real world.

With this new state of the art building, we accelerate those efforts, creating bold new opportunities for our students, researchers, the city and the Commonwealth.

We are indeed proud to partner with the Commonwealth to move forward with the construction of this building, which will ensure that Europe is doing its part to generate outstanding engineering graduates who will fill the STEM jobs available within the state.

And as we all know, there is just a growing demand within the Commonwealth as well as nationally in this project will ensure the school remains a beacon of high tech learning, high tech teaching and high tech research for decades to come.

Construction on the $90 million project is expected to be complete in the summer of 2025, just in time for the 100 year celebration of the university's Speed School of Engineering.
