Wegmans Hall

Wegmans Hall

Construction began on Wegmans Hall in June 2015. The building was named in recognition of the support of the Wegman Family Charitable Foundation, that donates $10 million to the project. The building houses the Goergen Institute for Data Sciences and other departments, and was dedicated in October, 2016.

The building has a fourth-floor bridge connection to Hopeman Hall. There was also a design issue with the steel columns on the fourth floor being too short, requiring extensions to be added.
