Bentley University is reimagining the Adamian Academic Center as a hub for innovation and collaboration, with immersive technology labs and hands-on learning spaces that prepare students to lead and thrive in the 21st century marketplace.
The new Adamian, which will open in time for the arrival of new students in fall 2027, will play a key role in fueling technology, innovation and entrepreneurial excellence at Bentley.
The Boston Globe recently highlighted the benefits that Adamian will provide to students including access to cutting-edge technologies and collaborative learning spaces that will prepare them for the technology-driven marketplace they will enter after graduation.
“It will have a student-run coffee shop near a continuous ribbon of LED displays for students to share screens or analyze multiple datasets at once. There will also be virtual reality labs and a makerspace for aspiring entrepreneurs to workshop products and ideas,” the article said. “It all felt very futuristic.”
Boston Globe reporter Hilary Burns donned a hard hat and safety glass and toured the Adamian center on a visit to campus.
“The project represents more than a new academic building to Bentley’s president, E. LaBrent Chrite,” she wrote. “Chrite said the school must ensure it remains relevant and valuable to students navigating an economy that many predict will be massively disrupted by artificial intelligence.”
