Saunders College of Business is Growing!

The facility expansion will increase the building’s current footprint by nearly 80 percent. Developments include additional classrooms, applied research laboratories, event space and student team rooms. Inspired by the latest technology and building features found in industry, with an additional 35,000 square feet, Saunders College will better incorporate essential elements of applied learning and collaboration.

Essential to the building extension, there will be a premier university event space that doubles as an experiential learning lab for business students. This transformative space will help Saunders College, regardless of the academic department. The location will also benefit the entire RIT community as thousands of visitors and students will attend conferences, workshops, celebrations and several other events each year.

This brand is built on outstanding faculty, leading-edge degree programs, and rich business relationships, all leveraged to position students for success.

The need for additional, modern spaces that support collaboration, networking, applied research, and business community engagement has reached a critical point at Saunders College. This expansion will make it possible to execute our mission and “unlock” learning.
