UT Austin Engineering Discovery Building Topping Out

We’re one step closer to transforming the future of research, teaching, and collaboration at The University of Texas at Austin’s Cockrell School of Engineering. The new EDB will replace the aging Chemical & Petroleum Engineering building, providing over 200,000 sf of cutting-edge space for innovation.

With flexible labs, collaborative areas, and classrooms, the EDB will fuel the next generation of engineers and researchers, supporting departments like Petroleum & Geosystems and Chemical Engineering. Thanks to CO Architects, Vaughn Construction and all our consultants. We're excited for the next chapter.
