ABC Carolina’s Excellence in Construction, Eagle Award, 2015

Home of the Flanagan Center for Student Success, Cottrell Hall is a 47,800 SF building representing the university’s philosophy of always dreaming big and striving for greatness. Designed to foster collaboration, it showcases extensive use of glass walls, creating a vibrant, transparent, and interactive environment. Beyond its architectural elegance, Cottrell Hall takes a global approach to its design elements.

The building embraces an international theme; a striking globe chandelier embodies the university’s global perspective, while an airport-style concourse provides an innovative study space. Home to the Office of Career and Internship Services, the Office of Study Abroad, Center for Entrepreneurship, and Service Learning, among others, Cottrell Hall is a bustling hub of student activity. The facility also features spaces for executive education offerings, including conference and meeting rooms. It is an indispensable resource for students attending job interviews, seeking employment opportunities, or enhancing their career competencies.

I would recommend Samet highly for University work on any campus. At Samet, they understand our process and appreciate their client’s needs. Their competence and willingness is unparalleled in the industry.
