Kent State to Build Expansion to its Aeronautics and Engineering Building
Kent State University’s College of Aeronautics and Engineering is unique in the country as the only college that combines the disciplines of aeronautics, engineering and engineering technology in one cohesive college, enabling cross-disciplinary synergy in academic programs and research. In order to support current and future enrollment growth, the university plans to build a 44,000-square-foot expansion to the Aeronautics and Engineering Building that will include collaborative spaces, state-of-the-art teaching and research laboratories, and office space to accommodate rapid enrollment growth.
A $1.5 million gift from The Timken Foundation of Canton has allowed the university to advance the groundbreaking timeline for the $19.6 million expansion project.
