Thanks in large part to Governor Rell and the Connecticut Legislature's passage of a bill making CSUS 2020 capital improvements a reality, Central will be able to move forward on several important projects that will significantly improve our campus and overall educational experience. Here are a few of the key projects we will begin working on.

New Classroom/Academic Office Building
The new Classroom/Office Building will provide much needed office space for a number of academic departments, in addition to providing much needed classroom space.  The construction of a new classroom/office building will also allow for the efficient renovation of the spaces vacated in Willard and DiLoreto Halls.

New Public Safety Building
The CCSU Police Department is an internationally accredited police agency, and the first college or university police agency in Connecticut to be so honored.  The existing space-a reconfigured
residential home--cannot accommodate the major functions of the police.  A new facility will not only meet the long-term needs of this vital department, but also underscore the University's commitment to providing a safe and secure learning environment for the campus community.

Fire Code Improvements
A new fire alarm, smoke detection and sprinkler system will be installed in Davidson Hall, the oldest building on the CCSU campus and on the State Register of Historic Places.

Carroll Hall Renovation/Improvements
The University recognizes that resident student needs have changed over the years and continues its commitment to renovate its existing residence halls to comply with technological and deferred maintenance requirements.  Carroll Hall will undergo its first comprehensive renovation since its construction in 1957.  Plans call for the installation of new electrical and plumbing services, improved heating and air conditioning systems and various interior room improvements.

CCSU also has a number of minor capital projects designed to maintain and improve the overall campus infrastructure.  These projects include door and hardware replacement, water, electrical and HVAC conservation efforts, roofing and electrical improvements essential to maintaining campus services.   Additionally, faculty and staff offices and classrooms are slated to be modernized to meet both changing building codes and instructional needs.

The recently approved CSUS 2020 plan, a comprehensive long-term capital infrastructure investment plan, will enable the University to address pressing state workforce needs in fields such as nursing, teaching, engineering, science and technology. Our plans for new and renovated facilities will provide the spaces needed for preparing students to respond to these needs and thereby strengthen the state's economic well-being.
