Scheduled for a fall 2020 opening, the three-story campus will offer programs in automotive service and repair, construction, health care, information technology and manufacturing, as well as general academic classes, student support services, green spaces, cooperative project areas and covered parking. It will serve up to 7,100 students.

Designed with the input of local professionals in each program’s career field, the campus will prepare students to enter the job market with current training on the equipment they will use in their industry.
