Construction on University of New Mexico Science and Mathematics Learning Center Begins
McCarthy, one of the nation’s leading education facility builders, recently broke ground on a $14 million Science and Math Learning Center at the University of New Mexico (UNM) main campus in Albuquerque.
The Science and Mathematics Learning Center, which will include a 200-seat auditorium, visualization lab, classrooms, science labs, department and faculty offices, and study areas, will be designed to promote freshmen-level integration between four departments, including mathematics, chemistry, biology, and earth and planetary sciences. In addition, the project will be designed with long distance learning capabilities. Construction of the center began June 29 and is slated for completion in the fall of 2010. The building will consist of four floors, with three floors above grade and one below.
