德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校科克雷尔工程学院, 工程教育与研究中心
应科克雷尔工程学院未来发展战略与当前功能设置需求,作为激活整体区域的未来中心枢纽,工程教育与研究中心(EERC)设计整合了本科教育、研究生跨学科课题及两大不同工程院系等功能分区。
工程教育的广度正在飞速延展,并逐渐加强其多元化、多样性和在未来生活中实际应用的可能性。EERC的建立不仅是为了教学本身的需求,更是将进一步实现学生和教师的共同协作,发现、挖掘并深究新兴工程问题的相关解决办法,从真正意义上建成一个互通、互利、互为成长的工程社区。
EERC的建立是对科克雷尔工程学院内以课题为基础的本科教育、研究生跨学科探索、创客中心、电子与计算机工程学院(ECE)、马尔瓦礼堂和会议中心等功能空间的整合:在极大地增强了学院形象和地标感的同时,树立起工程教育与研究中心未来建设的全新典范。
“EERC的一砖一瓦、一门一户都旨在创造出足以激发学生潜力、创造力和探索能力的教学、研究和会议设施。”
研究中心的双塔建筑结构满足了电子与计算机工程系和跨学科研究对实验室、办公室和工作空间的不同需求。
三层高玻璃顶中庭在柔和连接两边九层高石灰石与玻璃立面教学楼建筑动线的同时,亦是研究中心内,连接校园各个区域的重要节点。这是一个充满活力、日照充足的结构空间;是校园社交的中心地带,无论是日常学习互动、组织性学生集会、视觉形象展示,还是开放日或募捐筹款,都彰显了其作为校园社区的重要组成部分、科克雷尔工程学院鲜明的身份定位。
中庭的内折玻璃幕墙可视化地呈现了各建筑主体间的互通交流。而承载不同功能区块的研究中心从侧面隐喻了未来工程教育和研究的碰撞交融。
透过中庭落地幕墙向北眺望,则清晰可见德克萨斯大学本科教学空间改革示范基地——美国国家仪器学生项目中心。该中心占地23,000平方英尺,是当前美国国内最先进的跨学科学习项目研究基地之一。
设置有教学实验室、发明家空间、和核心实验室,美国国家仪器学生项目中心旨在尽早向工程系的本科生们教授当今最先进的工程研究工具及方法。无论是不加修饰的清水混凝土结构、无吊顶覆盖的外露管道系统,还是各空间的玻璃窗墙,项目设计无不充满着对“工程”这一抽象概念的具象化呈现。此外,实验性学生项目课题中心的设置将更好地帮助学生进行未来在工程领域的职业发展规划。
