Artificial Intellegence
Serving as a nexus for research across all 12 Penn schools, the 116,000-square-foot, six-story building welcomes collaboration across all 12 schools to further advancements in artificial intelligence.
Housing spaces for both research and teaching, Amy Gutmann Hall supports pioneering, interdisciplinary study and trains the next generation of scholars to innovate using AI and data science for the betterment of humanity.
Flexible, hybrid learning facilities enhance Penn Engineering’s educational and community outreach programs, with the broad goal of increasing access to AI and data science instruction and addressing inequities in STEM fields.
The construction of Amy Gutmann Hall is made possible by the history-making gift of Harlan M. Stone, C’80, PAR’13, a Penn Trustee and member of the Penn Engineering Board of Advisors, along with the support of other generous alumni, parents, and friends.
Multiple research centers within Amy Gutmann Hall will accelerate advances in diverse science and engineering disciplines, with applications to intelligent systems, computational social science, trustworthy AI, and cybersecurity.
Amy Gutmann Hall incorporates numerous educational spaces in AI and data science, including the Stavis Family Auditorium, Penn Engineering’s largest auditorium; the Jacqueline Africk and Andrew Africk Laboratory; and the Rachleff Hybrid Learning Classroom Suite.
Mass timber, or engineered wood, is a uniquely sustainable material made from wood and adhesives. Strong and lightweight, mass timber can replace concrete and steel, lowering a structure’s carbon footprint by as much as 70 percent and reducing construction time by 40 percent. Built from 82-plus truckloads of mass timber, Amy Gutmann Hall is Philadelphia’s tallest new mass timber structure.
