Leading the Way: Transforming Dunwoody
Dunwoody College of Technology has set a course to emerge as a first-choice, nationally-recognized leader in technical education, providing a full college experience rooted in applied learning and innovative technical education. By doing so, the College will be well-equipped to meet the current and future needs for a highly-skilled workforce.
Leading the Way, The Centennial Campaign for Dunwoody College of Technology, will raise $50 million to support this vision and is 80% of the way to reaching that goal.

Thank you for Leading the Way
" Thanks to the generosity of our donors and friends, we're nearly 80% of the way to our $50 million goal. That support funds projects and scholarships that are crucial to Dunwoody's ability to recruit motivated students, talented faculty, and dedicated staff. Together, we can continue to help meet the workforce needs of Minnesota and the rest of the Upper Midwest. "

Dunwoody celebrates new space with Community Open House
Dunwoody celebrated the new Welcome Center and Learning Commons, five years of enrollment growth, and the public announcement of the Leading the Way campaign at a Community Open House on Sept. 28, 2018.

A new Learning Commons and Welcome Center
Phase I of the capital investment raised $10 million to transform Dunwoody’s under-utilized gymnasium into a Welcome Center and Learning Commons, including a student lounge with fireplace. The new student lounge is already one of the most popular places on campus.

Welcome Center
The new Welcome Center houses the Admissions department and includes spaces to meet with prospective students.

Learning Commons
The Learning Commons includes individual and group study spaces, a home for the Dunwoody College archives, and a variety of print and digital resources.

Learning Commons Collaboration Pods
In addition to group study rooms, the Learning Commons features collaboration pods that provide a bit of privacy and noise dampening for groups of students working together at tables. The pods also have digital screens so students can display what they’re working on electronically.
