Inside Zupnik Hall

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.

The space will foster collaboration, beginning with its soaring, six-level tall Atrium that will be surrounded by glass-enclosed laboratories. Huddle rooms, identity-based student organization spaces, and faculty offices will spark the creativity of students and faculty.

Support Zupnik Hall's Completion

Help Us Close Our 4.6% Gap

With investment from the State of Maryland and our founding donors Stanley R. Zupnik '59 and the A. James & Alice B. Clark Foundation, Zupnik Hall is on track for completion in 2026.

However, we still need an additional $10M in private philanthropic investments to meet the estimated project cost of $214.5 million.

Your gift supports new construction of Zupnik Hall, and helps the Clark School of Engineering provide Maryland’s leading engineering education and develop outstanding engineers and ideas that change the world.
