Campaign for the VCU School of Engineering

Launched with the Campaign for VCU, the Campaign for the VCU School of Engineering is a multi-million dollar campaign designed to position VCU's School of Engineering to join the ranks of the top 25 engineering schools in the nation.

The success of the campaign will transform and enrich the lives of our students and faculty. We will combine efforts with the VCU School of Business to develop an academic village on the new Monroe Park Campus Addition, located at the intersection of Main and Belvidere streets. The new facilities will include state-of-the-science lecture halls, common areas and residential colleges to maximize the synergy of the schools' students, professors and programs.
