A Revitalized Campus Helps to Accomplish MIT's Mission

MIT continues its objective of providing state-of-the-art amenities for its faculty, staff and students. The Department of Facilities is a leader in fulfilling that objective by providing the development and construction for sustainable buildings. We also maintain, clean them and deliver the mail once the buildings are in operation.

In September of 2006, President Susan Hockfield announced a major campus development program that is investing approximately three-quarters of a billion dollars in new and renovated facilities on MIT’s 154-acre campus.

Koch Institute

A new facility is currently in construction and will be located next to the David H. Koch Biology Building and across Main Street from the Eli and Edythe L. Broad Institute. A foundational gift from MIT alumnus and trustee David H. Koch has kicked off fundraising for the building. The project recently celebrated a "Topping Off" ceremony, which signifies that the final piece of steel was installed. The building is scheduled to be completed in December of 2010.

Sloan School Expansion

The School of Management's new home extends from Memorial Drive to Main Street and will serve as an eastern gateway to the MIT campus. The project, designed by Moore Ruble Yudell Architects & Planners in association with Bruner Cott/Architects, will support new curricular directions that emphasize collaboration and teamwork.

Construction Updates are provided regularly via the web, email announcements and public notices.
