In fall 2012, Radford University will open a new complex for the College of Business and Economics (COBE). The 110,000-square-foot building at Jefferson Street and Tyler Avenue is the result of a public-private partnership with the Commonwealth of Virginia and will be the signature campus building for the 21st century.
With its state-of-the-art classrooms and technology, conference rooms and meeting spaces, the new COBE complex is designed to stimulate collaboration and teamwork. In keeping with the university's commitment to sustainability, the building is being constructed with the goal of achieving Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver designation.
