The facility includes eight naturally lit STEM labs, an observatory, a 270-degree digital immersion room, advanced flight simulators, and a sustainable greenhouse. A restored Blue Angel jet suspended in the building’s high-tech robotics arena symbolizes the school’s commitment to innovation and experiential learning. The project brought together [Jonna Construction](https://www.jonnaconstruction.com/) as Owner’s Representative,[ J.S.

This top-of-class facility not only elevates the school’s academic profile but also prepares its students to lead and excel in rapidly evolving scientific and technological fields far into the future.     The Project of the Year was announced at CAM’s** **140th Annual Meeting on February 3, 2026, at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace (formerly the Suburban Collection Showplace) in Novi.** **“The Turek Hall of Science is a remarkable achievement that will shape how students learn, explore, and imagine their futures,” said CAM President Kevin Koehler. “It’s a powerful example of Michigan’s construction industry delivering projects with real, lasting impact.”   The CAM Magazine Editorial Committee also exercised its discretion to recognize a special submission—an honor granted only a handful of times in the history of the Project Achievement Awards. For 2025, the committee selected a project recognized for years of dedication, collaboration, and vision. Through thoughtful design that fostered connection and inclusivity, the project reflected the values of the community it was built to serve. CAM proudly honored the MSU Multicultural Center with the 2025 "Special Recognition of Community Impact" award. Full feature articles on the design and construction of the George & Mary Turek Hall of Science, the MSU Multicultural Center, and all project finalists appeared in the October 2025 Project Achievement Awards issue of *CAM Magazine*.
