The University of Michigan is planning to build the $145 million Leinweber Computer Science and Information Building on the North Campus in Ann Arbor. Fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and convergence, the 163,000-gsf facility will house both the School of Information and the College of Engineering’s Computer Science and Engineering Division. The technology-rich structure will feature innovative learning environments and research labs for programs in artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, and information privacy and security. Furthering the university’s mission to achieve carbon neutrality, the building will incorporate a geothermal heating and cooling system that will act as a demonstration project. Construction is slated to begin in spring of 2022 with occupancy expected in summer of 2025.
