University of Michigan embarks on ambitious construction project
The University of Michigan in Ann Arbor is spending $2.5 billion on new construction as part of one of the largest university building projects in the U.S. Ten buildings have been completed in the past two years, nine large buildings are in various stages of construction, and five structures are in the design stage. "Having the right facilities is crucial to a thriving public research university," Vice Provost Philip Hanlon said. "We are producing the work force of the future in the industries of the future. And we are doing that even as the help our state government provides is declining."
