Health and Human Services
Campus architecture changed in the 1960s to reflect more modern trends. The College of Health and Human Services building — originally the Engineering Science Building — was the first building to abandon the Collegiate Gothic style. It seems appropriate that a building meant for teaching the latest in technology would convey a modern look.
It was built in the International Style, using concrete, glass and steel. All unnecessary ornamentation was removed and replaced with functionalism, simplicity and balance.
After a $17.4 million renovation in 2004, it now contains 17 classrooms, a community clinic and many other health-related features that serve students preparing to enter careers in the health or human services fields. The College offers 37 degree and certificate programs. Five teaching and research labs help students put their classroom work into practice.
