Facilities

Lyle School of Engineering offers students teaching and research facilities. In addition to the Jerry R. Junkins Building which opened in 2002, SMU has now added the J. Lindsay Embrey Engineering Building to the engineering quadrangle. In 2009 Caruth Hall was torn down and construction for a new and improved Caruth Hall began. Caruth Hall "2.0" (as it was dubbed in construction plans) opened in 2010.

The Embrey Building is home to the departments of Mechanical, Environmental & Civil Engineering. Overall there are more than 30 laboratories used by SMU Engineering faculty and students. Employers and other presenters come to the Huitt-Zollars Pavilion in the Embrey Building.
