Embry Riddle Aeronautical University needed new STEM environments to support various growing fields in robotics, space, forensics, and wildlife research. This new 50,000-SF building delivers a space for the next generation of robotic teaching and research laboratories for undergraduate education, research, and economic development within the state and country.
The building serves as a one-of-a-kind STEM-centered, technology-rich facility that combines robust learning environments with industry grade laboratories, workshops, and studios worthy of the brilliant scholars who would use them. At the core of the facility is a two-story atrium that reinforces the University’s culture, showcasing a multipurpose space for public lectures, fundraising events, and community events. Other environments include a planetarium, a forensic lab, a robotics lab and an engineering design studio.
