The main goal of the IEC, officials said, is to create spaces that encourage economic development and students’ economic mobility through career-focused programs, networking and internship opportunities, especially in high-demand interdisciplinary fields such as cybersecurity, computer and data sciences.
Preliminary designs call for a six-story building with about 180,000 square feet for classroom and lab space, open multipurpose spaces and conference rooms that could serve students, entrepreneurs and the general community. The university has already secured Overland-Gensler as the architects, Salazar said. The next step is to secure a construction manager and, if all goes as expected, the university will break ground by the summer of 2023.
