The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is planning a $75.4 million renovation and expansion of its engineering complex. Construction will begin in June of 2019 on the demolition and replacement of the Link, a 25,307-gsf structure connecting Scott Engineering Center to Nebraska Hall. Slated for completion in summer of 2022, the new 87,000-gsf facility will accommodate leading-edge research labs and support. A new mechanical tower will also be constructed. Work will begin in early 2021 on a renovation of the four-story, 177,000-gsf Scott Engineering Center to provide faculty and undergraduate research labs, classrooms, and departmental offices. Building systems will be replaced to support the demands of modern STEM programs. Completion is expected in fall of 2022.
