The University of Maryland opened the $152 million Brendan Iribe Center for Computer Science and Engineering in April of 2019 in College Park. Housing the Department of Computer Science and the Institute for Advanced Computer Studies, the six-story, 215,600-sf facility will support groundbreaking research and education programs in artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, robotics, data science, cybersecurity, quantum computing, and virtual and augmented reality. Designed by HDR to promote interactive, team-based learning, the interdisciplinary building provides a 5,300-sf maker space, 13 research labs, four collaborative classrooms, two seminar rooms, a 100-seat auditorium, a 298-seat auditorium, and a rooftop park. LEED sustainable design certification will be sought for the project, which was built by Whiting-Turner.
