What would you tell a student who is thinking about attending A&移动商务?
A&移动商务 is a great university! We have a wide variety of faculty from all over the United States and the world.
Tell us about a project you are currently working on or recently completed.
While the campus was closed during the COVID-19 pandemic, we took advantage of the time to make much-needed upgrades to the 天文馆. The facility has recently undergone a full system upgrade; now running a Digistar7 system by Evans & 萨瑟兰. This allows the viewer to enjoy amazing sights and sounds while visiting the facility. We were also able to install new carpet and seats; the first change since the building opened in 2006. We now have a seating capacity of 81.
