Overview

Quinnipiac University, in Hamden, Connecticut, is a private, coeducational university with 5,400 undergraduate and 2,000 graduate students, offering 51 undergraduate majors and 19 graduate programs.
In 2006, the university launched a major expansion to create the new York Hill campus, uniquely situated on 234 acres on a hilltop overlooking Long Island Sound. Centerbrook Architects created the new campus master plan, which includes a new athletic center, new residence halls, village-style housing, structured parking garage, and a student center functioning as a dining hall, recreation center, and student activities center.

BVH designed the mechanical, electrical and site infrastructure for the new campus, including the central plant, primary electrical distribution system, and communications infrastructure.
 

Integration Showcase focuses on a project where comprehensive and integrated services benefited a major infrastructure project. The many advantages of having a single source include: a broader perspective, closer coordination, and ongoing familiarity with optimal solutions.
