Wentworth Institute of Technology Center for Engineering, Innovation and Sciences

Wentworth Institute of Technology’s (WIT) new Center for Engineering, Innovation and Sciences (CEIS) is the first new academic building constructed on campus in 45 years. Part of a multi-year, $300 million improvement plan, the CEIS is a four-level, 78,000-square-foot facility that soars 64 feet tall above the Boston campus.

STV performed owner’s project management services for the center that fosters collaborative learning in a multidisciplinary academic environment. Housing spaces for physics, biomedical engineering, civil engineering, mechanical engineering and experiential learning programs, the CEIS also includes a Maker Space, lecture hall, manufacturing laboratories and the Office of the Provost. The building was designed to achieve LEED® Silver Certification v4 and exceeds the City of Boston’s requirements of sustainability with a highly efficient thermal envelope, and mechanical equipment designed for maximum efficiency including low-flow fume hoods.
