University of Nebraska at Kearney Breaks Ground on Discovery Hall

Published 5/22/2018

The University of Nebraska at Kearney broke ground in May of 2018 on the $30 million Discovery Hall. Replacing the existing Otto Olsen building, the collaborative 90,000-sf facility will accommodate programs in mathematics, engineering, physics and astronomy, construction management, industrial distribution, interior design, aviation, and computer sciences and information technology. The interdisciplinary STEM building will provide technology-rich labs and classrooms, a full-motion simulator, and an ITEC Testing Center. Hausmann Construction is the general contractor for the project, which is slated for completion in summer of 2020.
