HOUGHTON, MI-- Michigan Technological University’s Board of Trustees has approved a five-year capital outlay plan that includes three projects.
Two of the projects include phases one and two of an H-STEM engineering and health technologies complex. It would support Tech’s integrated programs that apply engineering and science to problems related to the human condition. The university aims to develop therapeutic devices, sensors, instruments, preventive strategies, and a health technologies-related workforce.
The complex is estimated to cost $39.6 million, $29.9 million of which Tech is asking the state to pay.
The third project involves integrated student maker spaces.
The plan will next be submitted to the State of Michigan for approval.
