We are deeply grateful to every donor whose generosity helped bring the vision of Stanley R. Zupnik Hall to life—a place where faculty and students will build a legacy of innovation and excellence to tackle the world's most pressing challenges.
Addressing Grand Challenges
Stanley R. Zupnik Hall is symbolic of the Clark School’s exciting potential—bringing together world-class students, faculty and staff across multiple engineering disciplines, cross-campus university institutes, and external partners to understand and address the world’s most pressing challenges. Research occurring within its walls will become a significant stimulus for economic growth for the State of Maryland, the region, and the nation. Innovative solutions have been hallmarks of the Clark School throughout its history, from the creation of the world’s highest energy density thin-film battery to suture-free wound repair that can revolutionize surgical methods. Zupnik Hall will further that tradition as we educate future engineering leaders and pursue pioneering breakthroughs in quantum technology, infrastructure, transportation, and environmental safety.
A World of Opportunity
Resources available in Zupnik Hall will help the Clark School and the university achieve several important goals:
- Boost student and faculty recruitment.
- Strengthen the curriculum.
- Continue to meet the strong demand for engineers.
- Increase research funding.
- Support economic development.
- Build community ties.
“Because of the very nature of the types of problems we must solve in the future, we need faculty and students from many disciplines to come together, including professionals outside engineering, to create the best possible solutions for society.”
