Metropolitan State University of Denver’s Advanced Manufacturing Sciences Institute marked the opening of MSU’s new Aerospace and Engineering Sciences Building earlier this summer. The event was attended by more than 300 students, employees and members of the project team.
The 117,000-sq-ft building, designed by Anderson Mason Dale Architects and built by GH Phipps Construction Cos., is prominently sited along Auraria Parkway in Denver. It houses programs in aerospace science; civil, electrical and mechanical engineering technology; and computer information systems, computer science and industrial design—courses related to Colorado’s current push to promote STEM education.
