Just under a year ago the K-State College of Business Administration hosted a ceremonial groundbreaking for a new business building. Fast forward a year later and we are starting construction on the new $60 million facility. The new business building is expected to open in summer 2016.
High school graduates for the class of 2015 will spend one year in our current building Calvin Hall, then complete the rest of their business courses in the new building. Students graduating from high school in spring 2016 or later will complete all their business coursework in the new business building.
The new business building is part of K-State’s future goal of becoming a top 50 public research institution by 2025. The new business building features nearly three times the space of our current building and helps lay the foundation for the future of business education at K-State.
Features expected in the new building include:
- 40+ Student study rooms
- Three 50-station computer labs
- 50-person financial research lab
- Dedicated space for student organizations
- Atrium with seating, networking space and coffee shop
