BIG-TC teamed up with the local NAWIC (National Association of Women in Construction) chapter to co-host a special event at Dunwoody in recognition of Women’s History Month and Women in Construction Week. The evening centered on a big question: What do you wish technology could do for you? — which lead to an engaging Q&A panel about the future of technology in construction.
Attendees also had the change to explore Dunwoody`s learning spaces through guided tours, making it an inspiring evening of ideas and connection. We are grateful to everyone who joined the conversation and helped celebrate the women shaping the future of construction and technology.

We welcomed guests from the Art Shanty Project today! If you’re not familiar with it, the @artshantyprojects hosts an immersive winter art program each year on a frozen lake in Minneapolis.
Students in this architecture class worked in pairs to develop creative concepts for interactive ice shanties. Their process included designing scale models, researching construction methods, and selecting materials they would use to bring their ideas to life.
At the end of the project, students presented their concepts to our guests. This experience challenged them to think deeply about their ideas and develop a thorough understanding of how their designs could function in the real world.

Behind every secure system is someone who understands how attacks actually happen. In our cyber range, students are conducting a credential harvesting and phishing simulation inside a controlled virtual lab. They analyze how to detect, prevent, and respond to these threats in the real world.

Our Cybersecurity graduates are doing great things! With hands-on experience working on physical server racks in our labs, real-world problem solving, and close connections with professors, they graduate ready to get to work. Our small-classroom learning teaches more than just theory — it builds confidence, technical skill, and the experience that leads to internships with real companies and careers in the industry.

Big things are happening in our Cybersecurity program and Automation Labs.
Thanks to a Shavlik Foundation grant and our partnership with U.R., our capstone students built a fully functional academic robot cell to serve as a Critical Manufacturing OT Cybersecurity Trainer. They integrated a conveyor system and designed and built the feeder mechanisms themselves. Now our Automation and Cyber students can program the robot and even test it for cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
Real projects. Real skills.

Engineering Drafting & Design students took on a bridge-building challenge! They researched different bridge styles, created detailed 3D models, ran simulations, and calculated how and where their designs might fail. They even estimated the maximum weight their bridges could hold. Then they built them with a limited supply of balsa wood. This project pushed them to think like real engineers! This is what learning by doing looks like.
