McCarthy Celebrates Topping Out at University of California San Diego Franklin Antonio Hall Engineering Facility

SAN DIEGO, CA — McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. recently celebrated the topping out for the new Franklin Antonio Hall at University of California San Diego. Franklin Antonio Hall will serve as a new facility for undergraduate and graduate-student leaning, both inside and outside the classroom. The 200,000-square-foot building has been designed with active learning, collaborative research, and innovation in mind.

The $135-million dollar building will offer a 250-seat auditorium and two 100-seat classrooms, student collaborative study spaces, an executive outreach classroom, space for student’s extracurricular projects, shared meeting spaces, a café, as well as faculty offices and space for the Institute for the Global Entrepreneur, which leads many of the Jacobs School of Engineering’s efforts to empower faculty, students, and research staff to bring their innovations to market.

Franklin Antonio Hall will focus on providing the Jacobs School of Engineering with research, education, and industry-interaction spaces to aid in the school’s continuous growth. Research teams will come together in the new building to work in areas including renewable energy technologies, smart cities, smart transportation, wearable and robotics innovations, real-time data analysis, decision making, digital privacy, digital security, nanotechnology, and precision medicine. Franklin Antonio Hall has been designed to facilitate collaboration between faculty, students, and private industry for research and development.
