Randy J. Cleveland Engineering Student Center

The Randy J. Cleveland Engineering Student Center opened in September 2025.  The historic building along Mississippi State's “Engineering Row” was completely renovated, preserving the Mississippi Landmark building as designated by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, which was originally constructed in 1906 as the Materials Testing Laboratory.

The new Cleveland Center features a modernized space that appreciates its history, designed to advance collaboration and enhance learning experiences for students in the James Worth Bagley College of Engineering. 

Renovations included constructing a new second floor within the existing building for a student maker space and team rooms that facilitate project-based learning.
