Vincennes University (VU) is Indiana's first college and one of the oldest in America. It presently occupies a 135 acre residential campus in Vincennes and a 130 acre community campus in Jasper. Silver Creek Engineering is proud to provide structural and site/civil design services to Vincennes University as VU continues to expand and improve its facilities. Our new building structural designs include the Construction Technology Building, the Donald G. Bell Student Recreation Center, and the State Center for Applied Technology (SCAT) on the Vincennes campus; a Classroom Building in Jasper; and the Gibson County Applied Technology Center (GCAT) in Fort Branch. We have also designed modifications to existing structures as needed to preserve their function and appearance.
Vincennes University is one of only two U.S. colleges founded by a President of the United States. It was founded in 1801 by William Henry Harrison, who served for 12 years as the governor of the Indiana Territory. After commanding the Army in the Northwest in the War of 1812, Harrison returned to civilian life. In 1840, he was nominated by the Whigs for President and won. When he died on April 4, 1841, shortly after his inauguration, the Whig program died with him.
