The Gary L. Thomas Energy Engineering Building (EEB) provides approximately 184,300 gross square feet of engineering and research space on six levels for the Cockrell School of Engineering (CSE). This transformative facility is central to achieving CSE’s vision to be a globally recognized leader in multidisciplinary innovation dedicated to solving the pressing societal problems of the 21st century and beyond, driving future economic progress, and improving the quality of life.
It will address both the insufficiency of space for energy research and the dated nature of the current space, allow hiring of future faculty with an energy focus, and allow for even more collaboration with industrial partners. Energy is a strategic priority area for Engineering and an economic driver for the State of Texas, with over 30 percent of Cockrell School of Engineering graduates working in the energy sector.
