Sundt Construction, Inc. held a groundbreaking ceremony earlier this month for the new Science, Engineering and Math Building at Cypress College, located in Cypress, California.
The new $80-million SEM building will replace the outdated structure with a new complex that includes 22 classrooms, 25 laboratories, faculty offices, support spaces and a highly advanced, domed immersive digital classroom.
The new SEM building is the first project to break ground under North Orange County Community College District’s Measure J program, passed by voters in November 2014. Providing modern facilities to support the sciences is a top priority of Measure J.
The groundbreaking celebration included representatives from Cypress College, North Orange County Community College District, Sundt, LPA Inc., MAAS and Porter Consulting LLC. The new building is slated to open in time for fall semester 2021.
