On 2/27/24, Aggie Square was the place to be – a hub of innovation where university, industry, and community intersected to forge limitless opportunities! Our CM students and industry guests were treated to an unforgettable experience as they explored two bustling job sites in a single evening.
Brown Construction and Whiting Turner united to host an inspiring Evening with Industry event, set against the backdrop of Aggie Square's dynamic atmosphere. At Brown Construction's site, excitement filled the air with the unveiling of a groundbreaking 6-story Mixed-Use Residential Building. This
Meanwhile, over at the Whiting Turner job site, the energy was palpable. With two expansive buildings totaling over 600,000 square feet, this project embodies collaboration between business partners, community initiatives, and UC Davis' research and innovation sectors. UC Davis will occupy roughly 60% of the space, with private industry embracing the remainder. Highlights include the Lifelong Learning Building, an eight-story hub for offices and classrooms, and LSTE-East (Life Science Technology & Engineering – East), a seven-story marvel housing cutting-edge research facilities and labs. And let's not overlook the sprawling six-story parking garage, accommodating a whopping 1,534 parking stalls!
Of course, the Evening with Industry event would be complete without the delectable BBQ dinner provided by Schetter Electric on their custom BBQ rig – a perfect complement to an evening filled with firsthand experience on job sites, insightful discussions, and networking opportunities.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who attended and contributed to the success of this event. Stay tuned for more updates and future events from SCMEF as we continue to champion the CSUS CM Program and foster collaboration within the construction industry and beyond! #EveningWithIndustry #SCMEF #AggieSquare #ConstructionManagement #stingersup #madeatsacstate 🛠🍖🎉
