Technology Transfer:

To encourage students and visitors to utilize the building, some of the space within the building will be provided for multi-disciplinary gathering. This may include spaces to showcase technologies and research developed at the center.

The building will also act as a learning laboratory. By showcasing green building technologies and environmental research, the facility will teach students, users, and visitors about integrated holistic thinking. Additionally, the building will help teach users how to manage a building to improve its environmental performance.

The building will also include a technology transfer center that includes areas for in house training, web based distance learning, and a showcase space for environmental projects developed at CSE. Connected via an Internet T2 line, the hub will include state of the art servers and the infrastructure required for high-speed web streaming and satellite dissemination. These training centers will also act as distance learning studios. This will connect the center to other centers of environmental excellence worldwide.

The Facility’s staff will be responsible for managing, marketing, publishing, and the event coordination required to support the activities of the center. This staff will be funded from the leasing revenues generated from the building.
