University of Texas at Dallas students, faculty and staff returning to campus for the fall semester will be greeted by new features and improvements as the University works to expand for its growing student population.
“From enhanced landscaping to upgraded campus services, including new EV charging stations, Comet Cabs and refreshed eateries, UT Dallas continues to provide an extraordinary experience for the entire campus community,” said Dr. Calvin D. Jamison, vice president for facilities and economic development. “Additionally, construction projects such as the DART Silver Line, Athenaeum and other game-changing initiatives will continue to transform the campus in support of our growing population.”
Construction on the Edith and Peter O’Donnell Jr. Athenaeum reached a high point this summer when the final roof beam for the first building was raised into place. The building, which will be the second home for the Crow Museum of Asian Art, is on the south side of campus near the Naveen Jindal School of Management and is on track to open in 2024.
Other construction projects include a portion of the third floor in the Erik Jonsson Academic Center, which has been remodeled into a new 80-seat classroom.
