Onondaga Community College's commitment to educating the workforce of tomorrow can be seen in major construction projects across campus.

On the east side in the Whitney Applied Technology Center, construction continues on facilities for new academic programs in Diesel/Heavy Equipment Repair, Welding, HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning), and CNC (Computer Numerical Control) Machining. The Micron Cleanroom Simulation Lab is also progressing through the summer. The construction in the Whitney building is expected to be completed by the beginning of the fall 2025 semester.

On the west side of campus in Ferrante Hall, a complete renovation of all of the spaces where students are prepared for rewarding Health-related careers is underway. Current efforts are focused on the first floor and will eventually move up to the second floor. The work is expected to be completed sometime in 2026.

Photos of the construction can be viewed below.
