Higher Education

We raise the bar.

Our goal is to have a seamless integration of engineering and architecture where building systems don’t call attention to themselves, but rather work together to create an environment that facilitates learning.

Our approach & featured projects

At our core, we at MCE stay hungry for the most complicated and complex projects. From challenging construction schedules surrounding the academic calendar, to superior sustainable design. MCE strives to deliver innovative engineering solutions to minimize the impacts on students, faculty, and guests of the campus.
