Phase 2

Phase 2, also referred to as the large lecture facility/support services building, will total nearly 38,000 assignable square feet and will provide a striking addition to the “front door” of the campus and include large lecture space that can be subdivided into smaller lecture spaces, a number of seminar rooms, new space for the campus bookstore, mail services and copy center, and support space that will house Administration and Auxiliary Services, including Human Resources.  A variety of architectural design features and material colors and textures will enhance the visual impression made as prospective students and faculty, families and other campus visitors arrive on campus. 

Once complete, a visual portal will be created between the Phase1 and Phase 2 buildings to highlight the Bracewell Clock Tower and also create a walking mall that connects the front of campus with the quadrangle area.  Plentiful glass is anticipated to enhance the appearance of the exterior as well as provide natural light to the interior.
