CRITICAL NEED

H-STEM Complex Fills a Critical Need

The H-STEM Complex Phase 1 was initially conceived to address what Michigan Tech knew to be critical needs for growing industry-relevant STEM educational and research programs.

As outlined in detail in our Five-Year Plan, since the H-STEM Complex was originally conceptualized in preparation for last year’s Five-Year Plan, faculty have been increasingly successful in attracting external funding for their H-STEM research. This increase in research has resulted in enrollment growth for degree programs that apply engineering, science, technology and mathematics to questions related to health and human-centered engineering.

Also since the H-STEM Complex was first conceptualized, a group of 18 people from across the nation visited the Michigan Tech campus to assess our programs for accreditation through the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). They evaluated all of our engineering programs, technology programs, and computer related degree programs using 8 review criteria. Each program had strengths that went beyond the minimum for each criteria. Only one program had a weakness—and that weakness was related to the size and capabilities of the facilities that serve the Biomedical Engineering program.

The ABET group verified what we knew to be true: lack of space for our Biomedical Engineering program is causing overcrowding. This makes course and lab scheduling difficult for the 70% of Michigan Tech students who are in degree programs that will be served by the H-STEM Complex. It also scatters across campus equipment needed by interdisciplinary researchers.

In short, discussion with the ABET group verifies what Michigan Tech has long recognized—new H-STEM facilities are critical to recruiting and retaining faculty as well as growing undergraduate and graduate enrollments.

In response to our growing needs, Michigan Tech has increased our institutional commitment of funds toward the H-STEM project so that the project can meet the University’s projected demand.

PLANNED PROJECTS The H-STEM Engineering and Health Technologies Complex (Phase 1), hereafter referred to as simply the H-STEM Complex, will support Michigan Tech’s integrated educational programs that apply engineering and science to improve thehuman condition. Michigan Tech’s STEM-focused niche allows it to contribute to the design of human-centered technologies (e.g.,therapeutic devices, instruments, sensors, and preventative strategies) through research, development, and education for ourstudents. The planned H-STEM Complex will include newly constructed shared and flexible laboratory spaces co-located withrenovated classrooms and learning spaces within an existing building (Chemical Sciences and Engineering) that will meet industrystandards for safe operation. The H-STEM Complex will permit teams of researchers and students from Biomedical Engineering,Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, Biology,Chemistry, Cognitive and Learning Sciences, Computer Science, and Kinesiology and Integrative Physiology to work together incollaborative spaces with shared equipment. The estimated investment of $44,700,000 will allow Michigan Tech’s engineers andscientists to continue to contribute to economic prosperity through development of technologies and preparation of the futuretechnological workforce.

The Integrated Student Maker Spaces project will develop “maker spaces” to support student innovation across alldisciplines at Michigan Tech. Maker spaces are places that engage students (and faculty and staff) in collaborative design andprototyping activities. Michigan Tech’s vision is to provide a centralized hub of design and innovation that will inspire and supportstudents’ creativity and innovation. The total project cost is estimated at $27,000,000 and this investment will allow for construction of anew central facility, as well as expansion, renovation and modernization of existing spaces.

The H-STEM Engineering and Health Technologies Complex (Phase 2) will include a newly constructed facility co-located adjacent to existing spaces that will be renovated as part of the project. H-STEM Phase 2 will further enable Michigan Tech’sgrowing research and education programs in advanced manufacturing, particularly as related to human-centered engineering andmedical devices. Phase 2 is a natural follow-on to Phase 1 because many innovation and engineering challenges related to modernmanufacturing involve medical applications, including 3D printing of blended metal/plastics/ceramics for multi-functionality, rapiddesign through multiple testing cycles, and the embedding of mechatronic systems. Additive and other advanced manufacturingprocesses are poised to dramatically change how products are made and changes in manufacturing will cascade upstream to impactproduct designs. The H-STEM Complex will include a visible shared space where teams of students and faculty will develop creativesolutions to support manufacturing across Michigan industries. Phase 2 will strategically position Michigan Tech to increase itscontribution to the growth of high-tech innovation and manufacturing throughout the state. The total investment required for thisproject is estimated at $74,200,000.

With Continuous Learning Opportunities for StudentsFrom Humans of Michigan Tech Stories:“I attended the Women in Engineering program in high school. That’s how I got involved in Michigan Tech Summer Youth Program (SYP). This was my first year being a counselor. We are the people kids go to if they need anything. We even pick students up from the airport when they fly in.

Being an SYP counselor means doing what needs to be done. And it’s pretty hectic—you live from nap to nap.

Meeting the future of engineering was the best part about this experience. The girls who come to camp are impressive. They are athletes, musicians, artists, and from diverse cultures. It’s awesome—there are people from every walk of life interested in STEM.

SYP was and is a fantastic experience—on both sides. Being a camper and being a counselor. I enjoyed meeting new people and becoming friends with the staff. We didn’t always get a chance to hang out, but we had experiences that brought us closer together.”

With Curricula and Professional Learningfor TeachersMichigan's new K-12 science standards are designed to transformscience education so that all students have the opportunity toactually do science and engineering each and every year.

Michigan Tech is helping to make this transformation possible.Researchers and staff across campus are working with teachers andstudents to improve K-12 STEM learning.

As an example of this effort, a $5 million dollar philanthropic gift tothe University from the Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow Foundationled to the formation of Mi-STAR, the Michigan Science Teachingand Assessment Reform initiative.

Mi-STAR is working with teachers throughout the state to design amiddle school curriculum that empowers students to use scienceand engineering to address real-world issues that are relevant tothe people of Michigan. The associated professional learningprogram prepares teachers to enable their students to reach thegoals articulated by Michigan’s new science standards.


Mi-STAR is a Michigan Tech led program that is motivated by a visionfor the future in which science is taught and learned as an integrated body of knowledge that can be applied to address societal issues.

16

“I’ve never seen anything like

this…It's the Unit Challenge that

makes Mi-STAR so powerful.”

Carman Kessler

“The obvious result is the amazing work they do as

they come to the Unit Challenge's culminating

project. There are several ways to get to an answer that works, and not only were they finding those

solutions, they were explaining them, drawing

them, doing math.“ Jayme Swanson

“Student engagement is really high with Mi-

STAR…They are excited to come to class, and I know the curriculum is working. Through the

unit's embedded assessments, they

demonstrate a lot of knowledge.“

Jen Pera

“I’ve come to deeply appreciate what Michigan Tech and the Mi-

STAR curriculum are doing to help kids hone their

argumentation skills…Think about it: If everyone had the

skills to have civil discussions and argue from evidence like a

scientist, we would have a more peaceful world. We always knew it would be science teachers who

save the world, right?” Christine Geerer

It has been a very good year for health research faculty atMichigan Tech. As one example, Dr. Jason Carter was namedone of eight inaugural research-leader fellows by theAssociation for Public and Land-grant Universities’ (APLU)Council on Research.

He was also named a fellow of the National Academy ofKinesiology. During the last year he has had 6 scientific, 4educational, and 6 invited editorials.

In addition, Carter recently received a $1.8 million NationalInstitutes of Health research award and a $500,000 industrygrant.

Together with other active research grants, Carter is the leadinvestigator on nearly $3 million in health research, whichtranslates into over $6 million dollars of investment into thelocal and state economy. His newly funded NIH research willcreate at least 3 new full-time positions that will be filledlocally. The new H-STEM complex will support Dr. Carter’sresearch, which is outgrowing currently available facilities.

This is just one example of how investment in the H-STEMproject will support economic development in Michigan.

SUPPORT FOR INDUSTRY

By Supplying Talent in Response to Demand

Each of the three projects described in this capital outlay request will contribute to economic development in the state of Michigan. By preparing students for the workforce of tomorrow and designing innovative solutions to society’s problems, Michigan Tech has, since its founding, supported the growth and prosperity of industry in the state of Michigan.

Michigan Tech’s enabling legislation calls on the University to provide the means for residents of Michigan to acquire knowledge that will contribute to industry. Current economic indicators and projections for the future indicate that demand for technological innovations related to human health (e.g., wearable technologies, sensors, monitors, drug-delivery systems, adaptive mobility devices) is going to grow substantially during the 21st

century.

By Preparing Residents for Michigan’s Job MarketThroughout its history, Michigan Tech has focused on application-oriented research and education in alignment with its charge from the legislature.

Like other technological universities, such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.), Michigan Tech is developing new technologies that support the work of healthcare providers. M.I.T.’s relatively recent investments in the area of health technologies have allowed it to reap huge economic rewards in the form of increased funding for research provided by federal and industrial sources.

Michigan Tech is poised to make the same sort of leap forward; the faculty are in place on campus and are prepared to pursue the research needed to help Michigan become a leader in the health technologies field.

An investment in health technologies by the state will help Michigan Tech leverage prior investments and increasingly contribute to economic development in Michigan.

Michigan Tech has a one-of-a-kind learning laboratory. In Michigan Tech’s Unit Operations (UO) Lab, our students learn to operate equipment, manage and maintain the lab, problem-solve, and design components for individual units. The result is that our students are ready to hit the ground running in their first job. Summer Youth Programs also participate in the UO lab conducting experiments that inspire the next generation of STEM students.

25

In order for Michigan Tech to continue to prepare students to become tomorrow’sleaders in engineering, science, and technology, we must ensure that their learningenvironment is a model of their future workplace.

Our physical plant, including laboratories and classrooms, must be continuallyupdated to support safe operation and effective pedagogy. Strategic investments tothe existing Chemical Sciences and Engineering Building provide a framework forsustainable design of the H-STEM Complex. These improvements include thefollowing:

Before (top) and after (bottom) chemistry labs. The updated design removes barriers to usability (e.g. the fume hoods centered on the lab bench, plumbing supply and lab gas plumbing separating the two sides of the bench, and locked drawers) and creates an interdisciplinary flex lab approach representative of industry spaces.

By Creating Leaders

Smaller investments are continuously being made to update finishes and removeasbestos. While Michigan Tech continually launches projects required to keep theUniversity updated on its own, our five-year capital outlay plan describes how thestate of Michigan can help Michigan Tech realize its potential to develop Michigan’sfuture STEM workforce and leaders.


FY 2016 the University renovated an undergraduate teaching lab,which will serve as a model for future H-STEM engineering and healthtechnologies complex learning labs (see images to the right);FY 2017 the University made a capital investment of $2,000,000 toimprove safety and compliance in the chemical stores, currentlylocated in the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Building;FY 2017 a second undergraduate teaching lab was renovated withfunding derived from cost savings from other deferred maintenanceprojects;FY 2017 the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Building coolingtower was replaced, increasing reliability for research and teachinglabs. This investment will continue to add value to the plannedundergraduate teaching labs proposed as part of the H-STEMcomplex.

Projected growth in health technologies will require anincrease in STEM professionals.

Last year, a record 1,749 bachelors, masters and PhDdegrees were conferred by Michigan Tech. Thesegraduates are people needed to design, develop, apply,manage, and communicate engineering, science andtechnology. Michigan Tech graduates have adisproportionate effect on economic growth becausewhat they do throughout their careers creates jobs forothers.

Recognizing Michigan Tech’s graduates’ potential, 331companies, government agencies, military branches, andgraduate schools came to campus during the Fall 2017Career Fair. Over 1,200 recruiters talked to our students. Inaddition to Career Fair, over 70 companies participated inthe four-week-long Career Fest Industry Days.

Michigan Tech has historically supported Michigan’s statewidetalent enhancement, job creation and economic growth initiatives.We also take seriously our role in growing the economy of theUpper Peninsula, an area with an unemployment rate now at 6%,well above the Michigan average of 4.3% and the national joblessrate of 4.7%

Although the unemployment rate in the Upper Peninsula hasdeclined in recent years, from a high of 12.3% in 2009 (one U.P.county was over 25% that year—the third highest in the country atthe time) more needs to be done to revitalize and grow theregion’s economic base. Future efforts can be informed by priorsuccesses—by responding to shortages among health professionalsand growing H-STEM talent, for example.

Since 2009, a partnership between Michigan Tech and MichiganState University’s College of Human Medicine has provided earlyassurance of medical school admission for Michigan Techundergraduates interested in serving as physicians in underservedregions or among underserved populations. Beginning in 2014,Michigan Tech’s partnership with Central Michigan University andUP Health System established a Doctorate of Physical Therapyprogram that will help address critical workforce and health needsin the Upper Peninsula. A partnership between Michigan Tech andthe local philanthropic Portage Health Foundation, which wasestablished in 2015, has resulted in an initial $6.7 million investmentin three strategic areas related to growing H-STEM talent and thelocal/regional economy.

We are STEM. We are the Future. Especially in the U.P.

We don’t intend to reproduce what is happening elsewhere atuniversities within Michigan. Rather, we plan to augment thoseefforts by providing leadership for technological innovation.

Growth in the region near

Michigan Tech is expected to be greater than the

statewide average.

We take our role as contributors to economic developmentseriously. Focusing on “new manufacturing,” particularly as itapplies to human health, may help improve economicconditions in the state. Michigan Tech researchers and theCollege of Engineering Advisory Board members predict thatmuch of the new manufacturing growth will occur in additivemanufacturing, an area in which Michigan Tech alreadyexcels. Large rust-belt factories will not be needed for themanufacturing boom, rather hi-tech, intelligentmanufacturing is the model for the future. Michigan has thepotential to be a leader in new manufacturing, and we canget there first in biomedical areas, paving the way for otherindustries that will use the newly developed technologies.Technological innovations developed at Michigan Tech willsupport the work of health-care providers, contribute toeconomic development, and support improved health-careoutcomes within the state of Michigan.

Michigan Tech’s Mission Statement was developed throughcollaborative engagement of stakeholders. Approved by theUniversity’s Board of Trustees on May 1, 2015, it is quotedbelow.

“We deliver action-based undergraduate and graduateeducation and discover new knowledge throughresearch and innovation. We create solutions for society’schallenges through interdisciplinary education, research,and engagement to advance sustainable economicprosperity, health and safety, ethical conduct, andresponsible use of resources. We attract exceptionalstudents, faculty and staff who understand, develop,apply, manage and communicate science, engineering,technology and business to attain the goal of asustainable, just and prosperous world. Our success ismeasured by the accomplishments and reputation of ourgraduates, national and international impact of ourresearch and scholarly activities, and investment in ourUniversity.”

The H-STEM Building Aligns with the University Mission

Each year a senior design team redesigns a prosthetic tomake it cheaper and more functional before they bring it totheir clients in India. Current models available in India cancost $1,000. Michigan Tech’s prototype costs $100.

“Michigan Tech will lead as a global technological university that inspires students, advances knowledge,

and innovates to create a sustainable, just, and prosperous world.”

Much has happened since we changed our name to Michigan TechnologicalUniversity in 1964. Like any other modern technological university, Michigan Techis a highly dynamic system. We have a deep understanding of our core valuesand programs, and we constantly review and update our programs to stay on thecutting edge of science and engineering. As a leader in technologicalinnovation, we support our students’ interest in entrepreneurship and innovationby promoting hands-on experiences.

Michigan Tech offers students a residential, discovery-based education. High-quality laboratories and flexible spaces for collaboration and experimentationcontribute to students’ education by giving them the opportunity to “create thefuture.” Students who are involved in campus-based group activities have theopportunity to practice their leadership skills—from problem solving andmanaging a budget to communication and conflict resolution. These activitiesallow students to develop their personal brand and network—preparing themfor successful entry into careers upon completion of their degrees. As futureleaders and innovators in STEM and related disciplines, Michigan Tech studentsneed access to up—to—date facilities and equipment to prepare them forcareers in the ever-changing global technological marketplace.

Michigan Tech’s Portrait of 2045, the University’s long-termstrategic planning guide, calls for an increase in undergraduateenrollment over the next 30 years to about 6,500 students (from acurrent enrollment of 5,827). The Portrait of 2045 also calls forgrowth in master’s enrollment from 904 to 2,400 (a total increase ofabout 1,500 master’s students) in the next 30 years, or about 50master’s students per year. For PhDs, the plan is to increaseenrollment from 514 to about 1,100 (a total increase of about 600PhD students) in 30 years, or about 20 PhD students per year. Anincrease of about 60 tenured and tenure-track faculty (from thecurrent number of 338 to 400) is projected between now and 2045.This represents an increase of approximately two tenured ortenure-track faculty per year.

Michigan Tech’s Portrait of 2045These additional faculty will be needed to provide instruction andresearch experiences to the growing number of students.Michigan Tech’s faculty ranks include a higher proportion oftenured and tenure-track faculty than do our peer institutions(public higher-research universities). In part this is due to theUniversity’s relatively remote location which makes it impossible todepend on a ready supply of contingent faculty who cancontribute educational services on an as-needed basis. Studentsare the beneficiaries of this situation as they have more access andexposure at Michigan Tech than at other higher-researchuniversities to faculty who are scholars, researchers, andeducators. These tenured and tenure-track faculty are able toengage students in their research projects and bring the results oftheir research into their classrooms.

The lack of facility space for our biomedical engineering degree programs isheightened by the overall shortage of facilities for health-related engineering andscience research on campus. Because of the interdisciplinary nature of applyingSTEM solutions to health and human centered engineering, this problem is at acritical point not only for biomedical engineering programs but for retaining researchtalent and increasing enrollment across campus.

Faculty who leave the university often relocate out-of-state to benchmark universitieswith superior facilities (e.g., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Virginia Tech,Purdue University, Penn State, Rensselaer Polytechnic). By retaining talent in thehuman-centered engineering and science disciplines at Michigan Tech, the state cancontinue to be a national leader in STEM education and technological innovation.

The Life Sciences Technology Institute (LSTI) (http://lsti.mtu.edu/), to be located inthe H-STEM Complex, will connect faculty and student researchers from multipledisciplines. The faculty are active in interdisciplinary, life-science research andeducation nationally and internationally. LSTI members are currently supported byover $15.7 million in research, an increase from $10 million the year before. LSTIpromotes research and education in the areas of medical technologies, humanhealth, molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, genomics, bioinformatics, andbiotechnology.

The ABET group verified what we knew to be true:lack of space in our biomedical engineering facility is causingovercrowding. This makes course and lab scheduling difficult for the70% of Michigan Tech students who are in degree programs that willbe served by the H-STEM Complex. It also scatters across campusequipment needed by interdisciplinary researchers.

Three Examples of Research TalentRather than describe the work of all the faculty and student researchers who will benefit from the H-STEM Complex, we focus on the three Portage Health Foundation’s Endowed Professors.

Pressure sensitive smart plate

Keat Ghee OngPortage Health FoundationEndowed Professor of Technological Innovations in Health

Knee implants have done wonders for those who need them. Keat Ghee Ongwants to make them even smarter. Bones respond to mechanical forces. Forexample, after a knee implant surgery or a bone fracture following a caraccident, the right amount of pressure actually helps bones grow better. Dr.Ong is the Portage Health Foundation Endowed Professor of TechnologicalInnovation in Health.

"In a big injury, the bones cannot heal themselves and they need a fixationplate," Ong says. "What I'm trying to do is make that plate smart, so it cantell exactly if there's too much mechanical loading, too much force, as thebones grow back together."

Such a smart plate could read what happens as a patient walks or goesthrough physical therapy, and possibly warn doctors of continually weakareas.

Designing this device requires collaboration. Ong says his Endowed positionis meant to bridge engineering and the patient experience by integratingresearch from biomedical engineering, materials science, and kinesiology.

PORTAGE HEALTH FOUNDATION RESEARCH FUNDING

Internal research funding is a critical stepping stone to beingcompetitive for external research funds. In 1986, Michigan Tech madea strategic move to establish a peer-reviewed Research ExcellenceFund (REF) grant program. With the financial support of the PortageHealth Foundation, Michigan Tech has doubled the REF fundsavailable ($220,000 per year) to human health researchers and facultyover the next five years. These funds are available through thefollowing Michigan Research Excellent Funds:

REF Research Seed Grants provide early-career faculty the resourcesto develop an externally funded research program. Typical projectssupport pilot studies that develop new research methods orprocedures or collect evidence for a novel approach. All supportstudent research.

REF Commercialization Milestone Grants provide resources tosupport the initial steps toward commercialization of technologies.These grants are intended to fund activities like testing and validationof the market need, development of technology prototypes, orpreliminary validation of performance in real-world sectors.

STEM EDUCATION CRITICAL TO INDUSTRY

From Michigan Tech Archives, Copper Country Historical Images

58

“goal of helping Michigan become a ‘Top Ten’state will be impacted by Michigan’s ability tosupply talent with the right education, training,and skills to fill high-paying, high-demand jobs.”

This perspective is shared by others. For example, in December2015, the Michigan Postsecondary Credential AttainmentWorkgroup, a coalition of business, education, and politicalleaders in our state, published an action plan to increase thequalifications of Michigan’s workforce. The Michigan Associationof State Universities participated as did the Business Leaders forMichigan. A goal set by the Workgroup is shared by ourGovernor—having 60% of the state’s residents earn a high qualitydegree or other credential by the year 2025.

As predicted by the 2007 Gathering Storm report (published by theNational Academy of Science, National Academy of Engineering, andInstitute of Medicine), the link between education and economic well-being has gone from being a suspicious notion, to being a well-documented fact. By 2008, the storm had not just gathered, it had hitwith full force. Michigan, with its low training and education attainmentrate was ill prepared to deal with storm-force economic winds. Theshortage of trained and educated workers dragged down the economyand launched a war for talent among companies that continues today.Whereas at one time, businesses chased low wages across state bordersand around the world, they were increasingly being forced to chasetalent—which was, as predicted, in short supply—particularly inMichigan. This was in large part, due to the fact that Michigan residentswere not sufficiently prepared to be a part of the workforce. As recentlyas last year, only 38% of Michigan’s working population in the age rangeof 25 to 64 had the credentials and skills required for employment in ourstate. The Gathering Storm report and our Governor are both clear that60% of the population needs to be employable in order to keepexisting businesses in and attract new businesses to our state.

Michigan Tech’s reputation and track record is built upon 125 years ofvision, hard work, and commitment to the local community, the state, andthe nation. To maintain our high-achieving status among STEM-dominantresearch institutions, Michigan Tech constantly pursues strategic initiativesdesigned to respond to changing state/national/global needs while stayingtrue to who we are as a University. Strategic efforts are developed throughcollaborative University-wide conversations that frequently include externalpartners and other stakeholders. Germane to our Capital Outlay Requestare several programmatic, hiring, and partnership initiatives that are criticalto reaching Michigan Tech’s Portrait 2045 goals.

Changes to the existing instructional programming, whether addition ofnew programs or elimination of underutilized programs, is driven bystudent demand and industry needs. The growing interest among studentsin majors such as biomedical engineering and kinesiology and integrativephysiology, coupled with increased interest in transdisciplinary fields(particularly at the graduate level) is the basis for Michigan Tech’s Five-YearCapital Plan. The first priority project, Phase 1 of the H-STEM Complex, willaddress the needs associated with growth in student interest in these (andother affiliated) degree programs.

The Brookings Institution ranked MTU No. 1 in Michigan, and No. 4 in the U.S. in “value-added” factors such as the kinds of majorsoffered—particularly in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), graduation rates, student loan repayment rates, and thedifference between predicted earnings and graduates’ actual earnings at mid-career and over a lifetime.

From Humans of Michigan Tech Stories:

“During my junior year of high school I went on a mission trip to Haiti. I went there thinking I was going to become a pastor—I thought I was going to study theology. Once I got down there, I realized there was a need for doctors in third-world countries. The only doctor within four hours had people lined up to his clinic. The summer before my junior year I was awarded a Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship to study liver fibrosis and try to identify it with mechanical testing. Spearheading my own research project was huge. Doing research without the steps laid out. That fall I applied for a Portage Health Foundation scholarship. They partnered with the Pavlis Honors College to offer a health scholars research award.

And I got it.

My research was funded for the year, which meant I didn’t need to get a part-time job, but even more than that, I got connected to research tools on campus, and transitioned from research in biomed to materials. Professor Pearce and I worked to identify malnutrition in children. We published a paper about a device called a middle-upper arm circumference band. We prototyped it. Tested it. Proved it worked. And for 2.3 cents, it can be 3-D printed anywhere in the world and hopefully change lives. Pretty cool.”

ROSS MICHAELS, learned the rigors of researchat Michigan Tech. It was the fact that he didn’t just learn about organic chemistry, but learned how to change lives, and how to save them that won him a full ride to medical school.

DR. MO RASTGAAR and 2016 PhD graduate from mechanical engineering – engineering mechanics, EVANDRO FICANHA, test their prototype for a lighter more streamlined robotic ankle that can "see" where it's going through an artificial vision system. Thus the ankle can adapt precisely, whether the user is climbing stairs or striding over a pothole.

Growth in faculty research is important to both undergraduate andgraduate students as well as the financial well-being of the Universityas a whole. The Graduate School at Michigan Tech has worldwiderecognition as a leading public research university. While we anticipatecontinued growth in student interest in existing programs that willbenefit from the H-STEM Complex, we also anticipate futuredevelopment of new programs that will benefit from the project. Thesenew programs will likely bridge traditional disciplinary boundaries.

Michigan Tech has a long history of developing innovative STEMprograms. For example, the University’s Computational Science andEngineering PhD program was developed in the 1990s to address theneeds of computationally focused scientists and engineers drawn frommultiple traditional disciplines. Together these researchers continue tomake substantial intellectual contributions to their own disciplines aswell as to computer science and computer engineering through theirwork with large data sets and novel computational methods. While it isimpossible to know exactly what the future will bring, we predict thatprograms developed in the coming decade will involve cross-disciplinary collaboration from our fastest-growing units, i.e.,mechanical engineering, civil and environmental engineering,electrical and computer engineering, and computer science. Based onfaculty members’ interests, students are likely to develop solutions toproblems or create technological advances that will ultimately improvethe human condition.


Faculty Research Integrated into Teach and Learning

Two of our most recently added departments –Biomedical Engineering and Kinesiology and IntegrativePhysiology – are the product of such cross-disciplinarycollaboration. Those areas of study, once considered tobe transdisciplinary, are now each recognized as their owndiscipline. Degree programs in these fields are nowcommon.

Every two years, the University completes the National ScienceFoundation (NSF) Survey of Science and Engineering ResearchFacilities, which allows for comparison relative to establishedbenchmarks.

According to the most recently published NSF data, the three topresearch spaces at Science & Engineering research institutions are: 1)biological and biomedical sciences, 2) health and clinical sciences, and3) engineering. For biological and biomedical sciences, Michigan Techhad 25,374 net assignable square feet (NASF) of research space at theend of FY 2015. Health Sciences had 2,823 NASF. NSF data show thatMichigan Tech’s combined NASF for biological and biomedicalsciences plus health and clinical sciences is extremely low compared toin-state and out-of-state benchmarks.

The status of existing research space also indicates there is need forimprovements to these spaces in order to support the current level ofresearch on campus and to maintain our current trajectory of increasingresearch and external funding. We need to improve our researchspaces so that they are no longer classified by NSF as beingin satisfactory condition (defined as facilities suitable for continued useover the next two years for most levels of research, but may requireminor repairs or renovation condition of facilities), and are insteadclassified as being in superior condition (defined as facilities suitable forthe most scientifically competitive research over the next two years).

Continuous Process of Facility AssessmentMichigan Tech’s space management is a continuous process maintained through our Accounting for Space, People, Indexes, Research, and Equipment (ASPIRE) database; specific roles in this process are outlined in the University’s Space and Equipment Management Guidelines. Space utilization is benchmarked against the 2011 Utah System of Higher Education Space Standards Study by Paulien and Associates.

The University conducts an annual snapshot to review space utilization and equipment inventories which assists in identifying strategic funding priorities. For example, for the current University fiscal year (FY2018) the office of the Vice President for Research has implemented a formal process for departments to relinquish their unit-level control of space so that it can be more effectively and efficiently used by the University community as a whole. This process is motivated, in part, by the need for additional space to accommodate the recent expansion in health-related education programs. Biomedical engineering, for example, has more than tripled enrollment over the past 10 years at Michigan Technological University.

In 2011 Michigan Tech engaged SHW Group, Inc., to prepare a comprehensive Facility Assessment and Deferred Maintenance Capital Planning Report. This report became the basis for the current long-term deferred maintenance funding model and prioritization schema that is used to determine the priority of any project.

CONTINUOUS RETURN ON INVESTMENT

74

Research Needs the H-STEM Complex will Address

To achieve our long-term strategic plan goals, both upgraded facilities and increased NASF will be needed. Particularly, upgraded and expanded facilities that support education and research in areas of study related to human health are needed. To be competitive for large National Institutes of Health (NIH) grants, investigators must demonstrate: 1) the scientific environment will contribute to success, 2) institutional support, equipment, and other physical resources available are adequate, and 3) facilities and resources are appropriate to provide exposure to a research-oriented, clinical environment. Our researchers cannot, at present, demonstrate that these criteria are met, hence our need for the H-STEM Complex.


The Biomedical Optics Laboratory is one example of where the lab space is insufficient to meet the needs of researchers.

H-STEM Complex will Increase Research Expenditures

As mentioned previously, Michigan Tech is in year two of a five-year partnership with the Portage Health Foundation, which will ultimately result in an investment of approximately $6.7 million for health research, education, technologies, economic growth, and community outreach at Michigan Tech. As part of this partnership, Michigan Tech set a goal to grow its NIH portfolio over the next five years by 20% each year. To date, we are on track to meet this goal. The proposed H-STEM Complex will allow us to grow our NIH portfolio even more aggressively.

NIH 2017 Budget IncreaseWhile the university has a strong NSF portfolio, which makes up 32% of our total federal funding, we are not maximizing our potential to exploit funding opportunities offered by NIH, an agency with a large budget.

After an omnibus bill that raised Alzheimer’s disease research by$400 million (to $1.4 billion); antibiotic resistance research by$50 million, cancer research by$300 million, and research in precision medicine by $160 million, NIH saw a $2 billion increase for fiscal year 2018. In comparison, NSF’s budget increase of $9 million basically holds NSF’s funding steady.

H-STEM Complex will Increase Research ExpendituresBeing competitive for large NIH grants will help Michigan Tech increase the amount of external funding coming to the University to support our research and education programs.

The facilities and administrative fees collected by the University as a proportion of all external funding are necessary to continually ensure that Michigan Tech offers the physical plant and support services required to maintain a growing research portfolio. Currently, Michigan Tech has the talent and potential to grow, but we need to ensure that our facilities enable us to be competitive for increased funding.

Other technological universities, such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.), are developing innovative technologies that support the work of healthcare providers. M.I.T.’s relatively recent investments in the area of health technologies has allowed it to reap huge economic rewards in the form of increased federal and industrial funding for research. Michigan Tech is poised to make a similar leap forward; the faculty are in place on campus and are prepared to secure the funding needed to help Michigan become a leader in the health technologies field. The only barrier to their success is a lack of research facilities that demonstrate superior institutional support, boast modern equipment, and include collaborative, flexible learning spaces for students.

Michigan Technological University is a State of Michiganconstitutional corporation, governed by a Board of Trusteesappointed by the Governor of the State of Michigan. Althoughwe have a great deal of regulatory autonomy, we endeavor tomeet all code and facility standards applicable for the occupancyof our buildings. We are exempt from local building and zoningordinances and subject only to State of Michigan laws andregulations that are clearly intended to apply to universities. Inlieu of local building ordinances and State of Michigan laws andregulations that do not apply at the University, the Universitychooses to require that new construction adhere to a number ofwell-established building codes and standards, as listed in ourMichigan Technological University Facilities ManagementProcedure for Codes and Regulatory Agencies Related to FacilityProjects.

Regardless of origin or enforcing agency, all of the applicablebuilding codes and standards listed in the document are to befollowed. The document guides contractors and others workingon University property and provides input on topics such ascompliance with the State of Michigan Bureau of Fire Safety rulesfor schools and/or dormitories. This document does noteliminate the need to also comply with the Michigan BuildingCode, including its barrier-free provisions.

Mandated Facility Standards for Program Implementation

The 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act also must be followed.Additional codes may apply for particular situations, which areconsidered on a case-to-case basis. Adherence to narrow-scopecodes and/or standards are required by the general codes listedin the document.

The edition of building codes listed in the document will befollowed throughout the project, unless construction documentsare submitted to the University for final review more than a yearafter adoption of a new version of code. If more than one yeartranspires between adoption of the new code and submission ofconstruction documents to the University for final review, themost recently adopted edition of the building codes applies.

Functionality of Existing Structures andSpace Allocation to Program Areas Served Academic spaces at Michigan Tech were generally designed and constructed to serve programming that existed in the past. Many spaces are dated and no longer satisfy current demands. For example, we have a number of areas that were originally designed and constructed as undergraduate labs that now must also meet the demands of graduate education and research. Additionally, many programs need expanded and updated spaces to allow for modern pedagogy that includes projects, teaming, and collaborative research.

Michigan Tech’s research and enrollment have both steadily increased, putting significant strain on outdated facilities and limited spaces. Our FY2019 Capital Outlay Request addresses the highest priority needs as outlined below.

Priority Need: Chemistry and Chemical EngineeringThe Chemical Sciences and Engineering Building, built in 1968, is largely in its original state. The majority of the classrooms, laboratories, research areas, and administrative spaces remain as they have been since original construction, with the exception of some renovations that have taken place over the years. As second and third generations of students come to Michigan Tech, the space remains largely as it was when their parents and grandparents attended.

Recently two undergraduate laboratories were remodeled tocontemporary standards, serving as a model for future projects.A new Chemical Stores addition is also being constructed toimprove the safe handling of chemicals. Additionally, anoutdated cooling tower is being replaced and finishes have beenupdated in various locations throughout the building.Nevertheless, a significant number of additional issues remain tobe addressed. Of critical importance is improving the design ofthe ventilation system which is inadequate for the research beingdone today, updating the chiller and humidifiers, removingasbestos which can be found throughout the facility, andreplacing end-of-life finishes.

The H-STEM Complex will involve significant repurposing of thisbuilding, which will provide an opportunity to utilize its well-maintained shell. The new addition’s capabilities will strengthenthe University as a whole.

Priority Need: Biomedical EngineeringThe research and educational spaces within the department of Biomedical Engineering (BME) are outdated and inadequate for modern research and education. All of the space currently used by the Department of Biomedical Engineering is repurposed from spaces originally constructed for mining, mineral processing, and materials science activities.

The research areas lack modern biomedical-grade research benches. The layout of the research space is inefficient; there is not an ‘open lab’ configuration, which is now common in nearly every other biomedical research facility in the country. The ‘open lab’ design reduces costs and improves efficiency, workflow, collaboration, and safety. The current facilities lack the number of laminar flow hoods and biological safety hoods that are needed to efficiently and safely conduct research and educational activities. Ventilation from the current Animal Care Facility (ACF) is inadequate; odors emanating from the ACF penetrate the entire BME space.

Current teaching laboratory spaces suffer from the same shortcomings as research spaces, and are additionally too small. Teaching laboratory spaces for Bioinstrumentation and Laboratory Techniques classes can serve only 10 students at a time.

Both of these courses are required core courses for all BMEstudents. High demand and small labs lead to significantscheduling issues and inefficiencies in delivering educationalexperiences, as BME currently enrolls approximately 315undergraduate students.

The space allocated for Senior Design is similarly small andoutdated. There is no wet-lab space that can be dedicated tothe senior design program, which is a significant shortcomingand puts Michigan Tech and BME undergraduate students at adisadvantage relative to other BME departments nationally.Some activities have been moved into research laboratories, butthis practice is not sustainable due to safety concerns andovercrowding.

Priority Need: Kinesiology & Integrative Physiology Over the past 10 years, the department of Kinesiology and Integrative Physiology (KIP) has transformed from a physical education program to a robust human health-focused research and education enterprise. Eighty percent of the tenure-track faculty in KIP have active federal grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and/or the National Science Foundation (NSF). Much of KIP research overlaps with research in BME. For example, nearly one-third of KIP and BME faculty are engaged in funded research that can be broadly-defined as Heart and Vascular Science and Engineering. Several faculty have interdisciplinary research projects and grants, allowing for innovative and interdisciplinary solutions to complex global health challenges (e.g., cardiovascular disease, obesity, point-of-care medical devices).

The research and teaching facilities in KIP are scattered across multiple buildings and located in spaces that were not designed for behavioral and technological research to address human disease and debilitation. KIP tenure-track faculty are located in three separate buildings. One was designed for physical education (Student Development Complex), one for environmental and biological science (Dow Building), and one for career services (Meese Cognitive and Learning Building). Additionally, the animal care facilities required for ~40% of faculty are located in another building in a space designed for mining, mineral processing, and materials science.

Undergraduate and graduate students in KIP regularly collaboratewith faculty and students from other departments as they engagein research, engineering-focused senior design projects, andcommunity health projects. Teaching laboratories for theseinterdisciplinary activities are small and restrictive, and the use ofconverted space has led to ventilation and temperature controlissues.

KIP research is conducive to the open lab model planned for theH-STEM Complex. Given the ongoing and growing researchcollaborations with BME, there is an urgent need to co-locate thetwo departments in close proximity.

As a result of GLRC researchers’ efforts, Michigan Tech now has the highest research and development expenditures in Michigan in the areas of Environmental Science, Atmospheric Science, and Oceanography.

Michigan Tech’s Previous Capital Project:A Model for SuccessThe University’s last capital outlay project, The Great Lakes Research Center (GLRC-pictured below), provided much needed space for water-related research on campus. The GLRC provides state-of-the-art laboratories to support research on a broad array of topics. Faculty members from many departments collaborate on research, ranging from air-water interactions to biogeochemistry to food web relationships.

In FY2016, the total value of the proposals submitted by GLRC-housed researchers was $11,394,440, representing an increase of$1.3 million over the previous year.

Like the GLRC, the last capital outlay project, the H-STEM Complex will address growing needs at Michigan Tech. The H-STEM project is anticipated to result in significant increases in the total value of proposals submitted and awards received. This will allow Michigan Tech to continue to increase its contributions in support of the state of Michigan’s industries.

Utility System Condition

Michigan Tech’s campus development plan was prepared in the mid-1960s to provide guidance for the development of academic programs and the physical plant. In conjunction with this plan, Commonwealth Associates, Inc. conducted a campus utilities study. Installation of the campus utilities, which began in 1970, followed the study’s recommendations for underground services. The Facility Assessment and Deferred Maintenance Capital Planning Report of 2011, prepared by the SHW Group, Inc. provided additional guidance regarding utilities and infrastructure.

Central Heating PlantMichigan Tech has a central heating plant and steam distribution system serving the University’s central campus. The plant has a total connected boiler capacity of 250,000 pounds of steam per hour with 100% backup of 120,000 pounds per hour. The steam distribution system consists of a walk-in tunnel system from the plant to the academic core. Tunnels run the entire length of the campus core and southward to the athletic complex. Service to individual buildings is provided through a mini-tunnel system. The distribution system was designed in accordance with the plant’s connected capacity and in anticipation of future growth. New facilities in the academic core are anticipated to be within 100-200 feet of a tunnel. The existing steam plant was built in 1950, with additional capacity added in 1957, 1964 and 1970. The plant and distribution system are in good condition and with current planned maintenance will continue to provide reliable service for the next 40 years or more.

The plant presently serves 2,730,000 gross square feet of campus facilities with an instantaneous peak load of 90,000 pounds per hour and a one-hour average peak load of 85,000 pounds. The present connected load includes instructional, research, administrative, housing, athletic, and service facilities. We project that the plant can reliably provide steam services for an additional 1,000,000 square feet, while ongoing energy conservation and technology improvements further increase the plant’s ability to service additional space.

MANDATED FACILITY STANDARDS

Utility System ConditionElectric and Communications InfrastructureMichigan Tech’s incoming electrical service is on a 69,000-volt American Transmission Co. line that terminates at an Upper Peninsula Power Company substation located next to Michigan Tech’s substation. Power is distributed to each building where transformers reduce the incoming voltage. The electrical/communications distribution system consists of a concrete-encased duct bank that runs the entire length of the academic core and south to the athletic complex. The electrical/communication system essentially follows the steam system, with facility connections tapped from this main duct bank.

The campus electrical distribution system was replaced in 2003 and now consists of three separate sets of lines. Two lines serve each building. Loads are balanced across all three lines and this arrangement allows for continuous service if one of the lines or a single facility on a line must be taken down for service. The system capacity is 11,500 kVA with 100% backup capability. Peak demand experienced to date is 6,800 kVA at approximately a 0.9 power factor. Based on this, the system will reliably service an additional 2,000,000 square feet. With planned maintenance, the 2003 cable installation is expected to last through 2053.

Michigan Tech’s communication system consists of six conduits that provide adequate space for University communication. Fiber-optic technology will enable the system to meet foreseeable future needs.

WaterMichigan Tech’s water system is a combined fire and domestic looped manifold system, with an eight-inch main around the circumference of the campus. Water usage is 28% below what it was in the late 1970s as a result of conservation efforts. Water is provided by the City of Houghton; there are no capacity problems or concerns. Michigan Tech’s water mains were sized for an annual usage of 375,000,000 gallons and a peak demand of 1,100 gallons. Current usage is approximately 100,000,000 gallons annually. In 1996, the City of Houghton completed construction of a new water plant and made distribution improvements that will meet Michigan Tech’s needs into the foreseeable future.

Utility System ConditionSewersMichigan Tech’s sewers are separated into storm and sanitary systems. The storm system provides flow regulation and drains into the Keweenaw Waterway at various locations. A fifteen-inch sanitary main, capable of handling 3,500,000 gallons per day, ties directly into the Portage Lake Water and Sewage Authority’s transmission main. This forty-eight-inch gravity main, with a capacity of 19,000,000 gallons per day, extends throughout the City of Houghton and passes through campus along the waterfront. The treatment facility is located east of campus. The size of Michigan Tech’s sanitary main and the new sewage treatment plant’s capacity of 18,000,000 gallons per day provide sufficient capacity for foreseeable future needs. Sections of piping are reviewed annually via camera and maintenance and replacement of older sections are ongoing.

Facility Infrastructure ConditionMichigan Tech’s roads, sidewalks, and parking lots are in satisfactory condition and are maintained according to a replacement plan and conditional assessment. Recent improvement projects include paving a commuter student parking lot and re-paving and adding sidewalks along Cliff Drive (a main campus roadway). The University does not presently have a parking deck, nor any bridges, in its road system.

Adequacy of Existing Utilities and Infrastructure Systems for Current and Five-Year Projected Programmatic NeedsThe central heating plant can serve an additional 1,000,000 square feet and the electrical system can service an additional 2,000,000 square feet; both are beyond the University’s needs for the upcoming five years. A $100,000 investment in the south campus high-voltage line this year will further increase system capacity. The water plant and sewage facilities both provide sufficient capacity for foreseeable long-term needs. Michigan Tech will complete two projects in 2018 to separate storm drain piping from sanitary sewer lines, lowering unnecessary flow to the sewage treatment plant and leaving more capacity for future projects.

University Enterprise-Wide Energy Plan, Goals, and Audit ScheduleMichigan Tech was listed in the Princeton Review’s 2015 Guide to 353 Green Colleges. These are the most environmentally responsible colleges in the nation. Each is deemed to have an exceptional commitment to sustainability in academic offerings, career preparation for students, and campus policies, initiatives and activities. Among other things, the Guide highlighted Michigan Tech’s sustainability committee and the fact that 72% of new construction is LEED-certified. In May 2016, the University named an executive director of sustainability who provides leadership in collaborating with the campus community on sustainability issues. This individual also serves as a resource for information, history and planning efforts related to sustainability, energy efficiency and waste reduction. This position will help the University identify and implement energy reduction strategies and projects based on input from the Green Campus Enterprise, University engineers and managers, and others.

Nominated sustainability projects and strategies are vetted and prioritized using a lifecycle cost approach to determine return on investment. Large projects that have been considered include: using biomass for thermal and cogenerated electricity production, cogeneration with natural gas, and heat recovery from waste energy. The entire campus’ building lighting systems have been upgraded and the university is in the process of upgrading HVAC control systems in all buildings. The Memorial Union Building, our student union, will undergo a recommissioning in the upcoming year with emphasis placed not only on reducing energy usage but also on reducing unit costs for electricity and steam.

Modifications resulting from an energy audit plan will be implemented in FY2019; high-energy-use research buildings (such as the Dow Building, Minerals and Materials Engineering Building, and the R.L. Smith Mechanical Engineering – Engineering Mechanics Building) will be given priority. The Dow building will be audited first; the study is already underway.

Campus Sustainability InitiativesEnergy Efficiency ImprovementsA number of factors have contributed to the reduction in energy consumption over the past 20 years as measured in BTUs per square foot. Some reduction has resulted from switching lighting to Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL’s) and Light Emitting Diodes (LED’s). In conjunction with the Michigan Association of State Universities (MASU) the University submitted a proposal to the State of Michigan in August, 2017. If funded, the project will allow for conversion of an additional 8,000 fixtures to LED’s, resulting in an anticipated cost savings of $95,744 over 7 years. This same project will include chiller, boiler and steam equipment upgrades as well as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system retrofits that could potentially save the University over $550,000 in 10 years. Currently installed occupancy sensors have helped by turning off lights when not needed. This initiative is estimated to have resulted in a 36% savings (or $31,000 annually). The Great Lakes Research Center, the newest building on campus, is heated by waste heat recovered from exhaust gas in the adjacent Central Heating Plant. We have recovered 24,061,000 BTUs,saving $150,000 in fuel costs and reducing CO2 emissions by approximately 1,250 tons, since the building was constructed.


Electricity Cost ManagementThrough the State of Michigan Energy Choice Law, Michigan Techhas been able to control energy costs by purchasing energy froman Alternative Energy Supplier (AES), Wolverine Power in Cadillac,Michigan. This has resulted in savings for the University of at least20% as compared to the cost through our local supplier, UpperPeninsula Power Company (UPPCO). Further savings will berealized in the upcoming year as the University has switched to aninterruptible rate with Wolverine Power (as of June 2017). The newcontract guarantees that 50% of the provided energy will be fromrenewable sources (wind) in Michigan.

PRIORITY OF MAJOR CAPITAL PROJECTS

93

Capital Project Descriptions1. The H-STEM Engineering and Health Technologies Complex (Phase I), hereafter referred to as simply the H-STEM Complex, willsupport Michigan Tech’s integrated educational programs that apply engineering and science to improve the human condition. Michigan Tech’s STEM-focused niche allows it to contribute to development of human-centered technologies (e.g., therapeutic devices, instruments, sensors, and preventative strategies) through research, development, and education for its students. The planned H-STEM Complex will include shared and flexible laboratory spaces, co-located with renovated classrooms and learning spaces within an existing building (Chemical Sciences and Engineering), that will meet industry standards for safe operation and the training of students. The H-STEM Complex will permit teams of researchers and students from Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, Biology, Chemistry, Cognitive and Learning Sciences, Computer Science, and Kinesiology and Integrative Physiology to work together in collaborative space with shared equipment. The estimated investment of $44,700,000 will allow Michigan Tech’s engineers and scientists to continue to increase economic prosperity through development of technologies and preparation of the future technological workforce.

2. The Integrated Student Maker Spaces project will develop “maker spaces” tosupport student innovation across all disciplines at Michigan Tech. Maker spacesare places that engage students (and faculty and staff) in collaborative design andprototyping activities. Michigan Tech’s vision is to provide a centralized hub ofdesign and innovation that will inspire and support students’ creativity andexperiential learning. The total project cost is estimated at $27,000,000 and thisinvestment will allow for construction of a new central facility, as well as expansion,renovation and modernization of existing space.

3. The H-STEM Engineering and Health Technologies Complex (Phase II) willinclude a newly constructed facility co-located adjacent to existing spaces that willbe renovated as part of the project. Phase II of this project will further enableMichigan Tech’s growing research and education programs in advancedmanufacturing, particularly as related to human-centered engineering and medicaldevices. Phase II is natural follow-on to Phase I because many innovation andengineering challenges related to modern manufacturing involve medicalmanufacturing, including 3D printing of blended metal/plastics/ceramics for multi-functionality, rapid design through multiple testing cycles, and the embedding ofmechatronic systems. Additive and other advanced manufacturing processes arepoised to dramatically change how products are made and changes will cascadeupstream to impact product designs. The H-STEM Complex will include a visibleshared space where teams of students and faculty will together engage in creativesolutions to advance manufacturing across Michigan industries. Phase II willstrategically position Michigan Tech to contribute to the growth of hi-techinnovation and manufacturing throughout the state. The total investment requiredfor this project is estimated at $74,200,000.

Relative Estimate of Michigan Tech’s Current Deferred Maintenance BacklogThe 2011 Michigan Technological University Facilities Assessment andDeferred Maintenance Capital Planning Report indicated a deferredmaintenance backlog at the University of $77 million in predicted projecttotals over the next five years. Removing projects that the Universitydoes not intend to do, items that were completed at a lower cost, orrenovations that offset the backlog, the deferred maintenance backlog isnow more accurately estimated at approximately $28 million.

Impact from Deferred Maintenance and Structural RepairsThere is a long-term maintenance plan in place to address the deferredmaintenance backlog. Funding of $1,000,000 was set aside in FY2015with a planned increase of a $500,000 each year until an annual total of$3,000,000 is reached and maintained. This plan ensures deferredmaintenance concerns are addressed in a timely manner. Additionally,we will invest $25,000,000 over the next three years in several high-profile deferred maintenance and renovation projects that will helplower total deferred maintenance costs.

Addressing deferred maintenance is an important piece of the UniversityStrategic Plan because it allows the University to provide exceptionalservices and infrastructure. Current projects such as the $13.6 millionrenovation to the Daniell Heights apartments, which primarily housegraduate students, allow the University to invest in its students byproviding attractive and affordable living options with easy access tocampus and community transportation.

Status of On-going State Building Authority (SBA) Financed Projects and Impact on FY2019 Capital Outlay RequestAll SBA resource projects have been completed as planned to maximizeprogram, research, and relationship (with donors who made gifts to theprojects) impact. Given this, Michigan Tech is well positioned to move forwardwith our Five-Year Capital Outlay Plan and Capital Outlay Request, if funded.

RATE OF RETURN ON PLANNED EXPENDITURES

It is reasonable to assume the rate of return on planned expenditures will be significant and sustainable given the projected increases in both enrollment and research funding.

The H-STEM Complex will provide faculty with the competitive research environment needed to grow our NIH and industry funded research portfolio by aconservative 20% per year. This alone will have a sizeable rate of return on planned project expenditures. The new facilities will also reasonably enableincreases in sponsored awards from all of the federal funding agencies currently supporting Michigan Tech research talent. No impact on tuition isexpected from this project. We anticipate continued increases in enrollment bolstered by the new H-STEM Complex that will increase tuition revenue andauxiliary income.

Michigan Tech's debt service on $15 million, if bonding all matching funds, will be approximately $966,000 per year. This will be supported by theprojected increases in both enrollment and research funding. Michigan Tech’s FY2019 Facilities and Administrative (F&A) rate is 53% for on-campusresearch. An annual debt payment of $966,000 implies an increase in research funding of $1.8 million to service the debt solely through F&A recovery (thistranslates to an increase of 17.3% in NIH funding). We can also look at funding the debt from just the 27% Facilities component of the rate, which wouldimply an increase in research funding of $3.6 million (an increase of 20% in NIH funding and less than a 1% increase for all other federal funding agenciescurrently supporting Michigan Tech’s H-STEM research).

The rate of return on expenditures is also something we take into consideration with all planned maintenance to increase efficiencies and eliminate waste.For example, in the H-STEM Complex we will recommission the current HVAC infrastructure and incorporate new sustainable technologies that willimprove operational savings. Our Facilities Management Sustainability Initiatives will significantly increase operational savings and enhance the rate ofreturn over time.

ALTERNATIVES TO NEW INFRASTRUCTURE

Michigan Tech always considers alternatives to new construction before creating new infrastructure. As a result of this carefuldeliberation, we have not requested a capital outlay from the State of Michigan since 2008, when the Great Lakes Research Center wasapproved. Since that time, we have repurposed or expanded existing spaces to address needs.

For example, for Michigan Tech’s Doctorate in Physical Therapy, which was established in partnership with Central Michigan University,Michigan Tech renovated space in an existing structure. The Advanced Technology Development Complex (ATDC) was renovated tocreate an innovative distance learning center that includes lecture and laboratory spaces. While this location worked well for the initialstart-up of the program, the ATDC is located off the main campus and therefore is not an ideal location for an instructional programthat brings together mechanical engineers working on prosthetic devices, biological scientists contributing understanding to thefitness versus fatness debate at the national level, and biomedical engineers designing a subject-specific orthopedic wrist cast. Theplan is to continue the collaborative learning program, but to house the on-site portion of the degree program in the transdisciplinaryH-STEM Complex. This would maximize collaboration and facilitate development of innovative technologies, ultimately creating jobs.

Other examples of alternatives to new infrastructure include the upgrading of chemistry laboratories and implementation of theinnovative space buy-back program. Current projects mentioned earlier utilize existing infrastructure to the extent possible, requiringvery few new construction projects on the Michigan Tech campus. Where needed, current buildings are modified. For example, a newelectron microscope is housed in a room added to the ATDC. Similarly, the new Chemical Storage facility was added to the ChemicalSciences and Engineering Building.

ALTERNATIVES TO NEW INFRASTRUCTUREFor the H-STEM Complex, a complete renovation of the existing Chemical Sciences and Engineering Building was considered but wasnot selected for several reasons. The cost to renovate existing small, inflexible labs into modern research facilities was prohibitive.Available space in the building was also insufficient to allow for the addition of modern research facilities that meet new (andanticipated future) safety standards. Additionally, the increase in research and growth in number of students using the building isplacing potentially unsustainable demands on the ventilation system.

Renovation of a different facility was also considered but was not selected because the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Buildingwas identified in a facility maintenance review as the academic building on campus most in need of renovation. No other building wasin need of such extensive renovation to address teaching needs.

An entire newly constructed facility was also considered but was not selected because it would not allow for renovation of existingteaching laboratory space. Construction of new classrooms, classroom labs, and office spaces were determined to be cost-prohibitive,especially as compared to the cost of renovating and repurposing existing space.

The combination of an addition to and renovation of the existing Chemical Sciences and Engineering Building addresses all needs inthe most cost-effective way possible. The new addition will provide high-tech, flexible lab space that meets modern safety standardsand the needs of students and researchers. Research labs in the existing building, which have exceeded their useful lifespan, will berepurposed to provide modern classroom and learning spaces for students.

The H-STEM Engineering and Health Technologies Complex – Phase 1 will enhance Michigan Tech’s mission to “deliver action-basedundergraduate and graduate education and discover new knowledge through research and innovation.” The success of the project willbe measured by increased enrollment, career placements, research expenditures, and the “accomplishments and reputation of ourgraduates, national and international impact of our research and scholarly activities, and investment in our University”(https://www.banweb.mtu.edu/pls/owa/strategic_plan.p_display).

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Maintenance Schedule in Excess of $1,000,000Fiscal Year 2019-2023 Maintenance ScheduleScheduling of maintenance projects is informed by data collected from annual and bi-annual reporting on facility assessment. Project priorities are responsive to new safety standards, national benchmark goals for research spaces, and overall maintenance needs. This strategic approach allows Michigan Tech to recruit and retain research talent and provide students the most industry-relevant education. Attainment of our goals, in terms of rankings, career placement, and the University’s Portrait 2045 depend on our ability to make strategic maintenance decisions.

The University is currently in the process of several major maintenance projects, each valued at over $1,000,000, that will continue through fiscal year 2018 and into 2019. These include: Chemical Stores $2,000,000, Daniell Heights Maintenance $13,600,000, and University Wide Safety Issues $2,000,000

While there are a number of additional projects planned for fiscal years 2020 through 2023, no single stand-alone project valued at over $1,000,000 is planned for those years.

Non-routine Maintenance Budgeted for FY2019 and Relevant Sources of FundingThe University budgeted $1,000,000 in general fund dollars towards non-routine maintenance for FY2016, $1,500,000 in FY2017,$2,000,000 in FY2018, and $2,500,000 is earmarked for FY2019. An additional $500,000 increase is planned in FY2020 to reach a total of $3,000,000 in planned annual expenditures. In order to maintain a budget-neutral impact on student tuition, increases in the non-routine maintenance budget have been implemented over an extended period of time.

Relevant SourcesFor FY2017-FY2022, the Portage Health Foundation has committed $110,000 per year in support of Michigan Tech’s health research. A portion of these funds is earmarked for infrastructure and core facility enhancement. Michigan Tech uses our existing CORE application process through the Vice President of Research office to award funds. CORE Facilities awards cover costs associated with research facilities, like replacing and maintaining equipment. Submission of a competitive proposal for University funding is restricted to recognized CORE Facilities. The goal of PHF-CORE is to provide substantial infrastructure enhancements to support health-related faculty and student activities.
