The project began with the demolition of Virginia Tech's 15,400 square meter Randolph Hall. Construction now continues with the renovation of a portion of the existing Hancock Hall to tie into the new construction of one of the largest buildings on the Blacksburg campus; the forthcoming five-story, approximately 28,500 square meter Mitchell Hall engineering building.

The new building will house five departments: aerospace and ocean engineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer science, and engineering education.

The project also includes building around one of the largest university-owned wind tunnels in the country, and creating high-performing classrooms, instructional laboratories, research laboratories and collaboration spaces.

Construction began spring 2024 with the demolition of Randolph Hall. The project has a target completion of fall 2028.
