Campus

The Carlson School of Management's two facilities, the Curtis L. Carlson School of Management and Herbert M. Hanson Jr. Hall, are on the University of Minnesota's West Bank, west of the Mississippi River.

Curtis L. Carlson School of Management

The Carlson School is housed in a 243,000-square-foot (22,600 m2), five-story building that was dedicated in 1998. The building has 33 classrooms, 35 meeting rooms, a 180-seat lecture hall, and a 250-seat auditorium. It is equipped with wireless internet access, experiential learning laboratories, and teleconferencing and video interview capabilities. It is also home to a dining center in the basement level. The facility is currently undergoing renovations.

Herbert M. Hanson Jr. Hall

Opened on September 25, 2008, Hanson Hall is connected to the Carlson School by the Robert Sparboe skyway. As part of a $40 million expansion project, Herbert M. Hanson Jr. Hall nearly doubled the size of the business school, and provided a state-of-the-art home for the Carlson School undergraduate program. Hanson Hall covers 124,000 square feet (11,500 m2), is four stories tall, and has nine classrooms with wireless Internet access and state-of-the-art presentation technology. It also features 22 interview rooms, 10 breakout rooms, a collaborative learning lab, a recruiter lounge, a meeting room for information sessions and presentations by the corporate community, offices for undergraduate advising, undergraduate career placement, offices for the Department of Economics in the College of Liberal Arts, and a Caribou Coffee. The building is named after the benefactors, Herb and Bar Hanson, who kicked off the building campaign with a $10 million pledge in 2004. In 2006, the Minnesota State Legislature granted $26.6 million in funding to the Carlson School as part of the University of Minnesota's Capital Campaign request.[ citation needed ]
