The start of a new era<\/h2>

State funding and private donations, including a record gift from UW-Madison alumni Marvin and Jeffrey Levy, will allow the college to construct a new $347 million engineering building for research and instruction. At nearly 400,000 square feet, it will continue to facilitate the college’s growth. Following the building’s approval, Grainger Dean Ian Robertson announced his retirement.<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n
