Building the Future

New Scaife Hall takes shape with support from ACS

Andrew Carnegie Society members are making space for the next big breakthroughs in engineering.

Carnegie Mellon University began construction on the Alan Magee Scaife Hall of Engineering — a new hub for engineering education and research — in January 2021. More than 270 individuals, including 48 ACS members, supported the Scaife Hall Construction Fund during the last academic year.

The new Scaife Hall will more than double the size of the original building and include:

• Expanded, technology-rich labs
• Modern, flexible classrooms
• Spaces that facilitate formal and informal collaboration

Together with Hamerschlag and ANSYS Halls, this new facility will create a vibrant Engineering Quad on campus.
