Modernized Education Spaces
Hudson Hall will be a new home for expanded educational offerings including advanced computing, with contemporary classrooms and teaching labs that provide optimal environments for engineering design, problem-based teaching, and hands-on learning.
Shop & Project Spaces
Reimagined shop and project spaces — featuring glass-walled classrooms, labs, and maker studios — will form a dynamic hub of engineering discovery.
The newly modernized Hudson Hall will dramatically expand student-centered spaces for teaching, collaboration, and connectivity.

Opportunities to Give
Refreshed Research Spaces
Hudson Hall will house larger, more flexible laboratories designed for state-of-the art research, cutting-edge technology, and teamwork across disciplines.
Our renewed vision is focused on long-term flexibility and functionality by providing an adaptable, modernized framework for classrooms and laboratories.
Collision Spaces
The renovation will enclose existing exterior courtyards to form a light-filled, multi-story atrium embraced by the building’s historic brick wings.
The new atrium serves as the heart of Duke Engineering, an active hub of learning and collaboration for year-round student activities unifying Harrington and Levine Science Research Center (LSRC) quads with interior pathways that enable interdisciplinary connections.
