Latest trends and metrics: building next-gen STEM facilities for long-term viability

Colleges and universities across the country are competing for STEM-focused students and faculty, and critical to these efforts are facilities meant to last the better part of a century and support cross-discipline convergence, experiential learning, collaboration, and project-based learning. In this session RFD presents emerging trends, planning solutions and benchmarking for recently completed and "on the boards" science and engineering facilities, and the key decisions that inform building systems that support the right amount of flexibility and adaptability. They outline what key decisions to make and pitfalls to avoid to best leverage complex systems inherent to laboratory focused facilities.
