Fitts-Woolard Hall By the Numbers
Work has begun on Fitts-Woolard Hall,* the College’s newest building on NC State’s Centennial Campus. The new home of the Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering and the Edward P. Fitts Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering represents a new funding paradigm for the College and for NC State.
While the project received $75 million from a statewide bond issue in March 2016, the College hopes to raise $60 million in private funds to complete the project. Below you’ll learn more about the building, the alumni and friends who have pledged to help raise that money and how you can help.
