Amid its ongoing $500 million construction and campus renovation campaign, Liberty University will be building a new dedicated home for its School of Business, to open on its Lynchburg campus by fall 2018.
The cost of the building, which will be around 78,000 square feet, has not been finalized.
Liberty also has announced a new partnership between the school and Charlotte, N.C.-based Hendrick Automotive Group, the nation’s largest privately held car dealership group, to establish an auto dealership management curriculum.
“Our president [Jerry Falwell Jr.] is making a huge investment back into the campus, which we know impacts the region, impacts our students and builds more value for everyone. … It’s something that’s been a long time coming and … we know our students will certainly take pride in that,” says Liberty School of Business Dean Scott Hicks. “We have some outstanding programs, some of them are second to none, and the facility we’re looking at will certainly be that way too.”
