Western Michigan University (WMU) is a large research university with a 550-acre main campus in Kalamazoo, MI and eight regional centers and sites around the state. WMU was founded in 1903 and currently has an enrollment of more than 27,700 students.
As can be expected, WMU is always building onto and upgrading its facilities in order to retain its status as one of the nation's top 100 public universities. The most recent project undertaken at WMU involves the new construction of the Energy Resource Center (ERC), which will serve two new WMU facilities.
