In the past several years, HFC’s Technology Building (Building E on the main campus) underwent a $14.9 million renovation that remodeled 18,000 square feet and added 24,000 square feet of new space as part of the Entrepreneur and Innovation Center / Technology Building renovation and addition project. Overall, the renovations and improvements benefit more than 3,300 students per year.
“The new expansion has significantly increased flexibility for the programs housed here. The changes have also enhanced the student experience by providing ample spaces to relax and decompress outside the classroom,” said Associate Dean of Industrial Technologies in the HFC School of Business, Entrepreneurship, and Professional Development (BEPD) Dr. Sašo Krstovski.
The purpose of the renovation was to transform the Tech Building into a cutting-edge, state-of-the-art facility to meet the ever-growing needs of Michigan’s professional trades industries. The future of automotive technology, advanced manufacturing, computer-aided design (CAD), robotics, mechatronics, welding, computer programming, cybersecurity, and systems engineering will require growing industry partnerships, updated technology, and exceptional hands-on training.
