The Center for STEM Studies on the North Campus of Erie Community College opened in January 2018. At $30 million, it is the most expensive single construction project on the college campus. The STEM building contains labs, prep rooms and support spaces for ECC’s Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Engineering Science programs, as well as shared instructional spaces, collaborative study spaces, a tutoring center, and faculty offices. CTDG had the pleasure of providing audiovisual and acoustical design services for this project.

The University of Virginia Hospital Expansion project won the Autodesk AEC Excellence Award in the Construction Medium category!

The University Health System is a nationally renowned academic medical center that provides specialty care services ranging from wellness programs and routine checkups to the most technologically advanced care. The hub of the Medical Center is a hospital with over 500 beds in operation and a State-designated Level 1 trauma center. This project involves the expansion of the Emergency Department to accommodate an existing and growing demand for emergency care. The department will include an intensive care/ intermediate care unit, intake & public support areas, treatment/exam rooms, trauma rooms, radiology rooms, nurse stations, conference room and support areas. The Expansion will also include a six (6) floor patient bed tower with acute, step down and ICU units.

The Environments for Aging Expo & Conference offers the latest strategies and ideas for creating functional and attractive living environments that meet the needs of our aging population. During this comprehensive three-day learning experience at the Savannah convention Center, attendees network with peers while learning the latest innovations and best practices in senior friendly design for long-term and residential care settings.

Community tours offer insights into innovations of senior living designs. These walk-throughs provide real-life examples of incorporating best practice techniques, new enrichment opportunities, and memory & dementia care focused design.

Workshops provide an in-depth look at processes and procedures utilized across continuum of care, from CCRC design where some residents may still be independent, to memory and dementia care design.

Convergent Technologies is attentive to the unique needs of senior living homes and facilities, focusing on memory and dementia care, as well as the need for enrichment opportunities for our seniors. CTDG has been part of Environments for Aging projects such as Granite Gate Senior Living, Villa Valencia, Westminster at Lake Ridge, The Branchlands, and more.

Convergent’s work at the Montgomery County Multi-Agency Services Park (MASP) is highlighted in Sound & Communications Magazine! CTDG designed all the AV and IT for this state of the art facility. The crowing jewel of the design is reality-based training simulation. CTDG designed all of the AV for this incredibly life like simulation. Please check out the full article to learn more!
