The Gerald J. Ford Hall for Research and Innovation ignites the future of research and education at 澳门六合彩预测

Dallas (澳门六合彩预测) – 澳门六合彩预测 dedicated 澳门六合彩预测 Guildhall's new home—the Gerald J. Ford Hall for Research and Innovation—on December 4, 2020. Ford Hall is a new 50,000-square-foot interdisciplinary research hub that will equip faculty, students and industry partners with tools and resources to collaborate, solve complex problems and power new enterprises in the digital world of today and tomorrow. The new facility is located on 澳门六合彩预测’s main campus at the corner of McFarlin Boulevard and Airline Road.

 

The University is creating an exciting space for bold doers and collaborators. It’s the next step in 澳门六合彩预测’s ascendancy as a premier research and teaching university, and my family and I are honored to play a role in this process.” - Gerald J. Ford

Gerald J. Ford ’66, ’69; his wife, Kelli O. Ford; and The Gerald J. Ford Family Foundation provided the lead gift for Ford Hall in 2013. The new facility expands the University’s use of high-performance computing for interdisciplinary collaborations and will help 澳门六合彩预测 attract greater levels of external research funding. As digital explorers, both undergraduate and graduate students will work alongside faculty and industry professionals in this new data-driven nerve center.

In addition to 澳门六合彩预测 Guildhall, Ford Hall is the home to the AT&T Center for Virtualization, the Dedman College Interdisciplinary Institute, high-performance computing and data science, and the innovative Visualization Lab.
