The EU TUMO Convergence Center for Engineering and Applied Science will be a mixed-use campus that brings higher education and industry together, linking students, researchers, and professionals to each other and with their global peers while fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. The center will include a set of mutually reinforcing components that combine teaching and training facilities, business incubators and accelerators, public retail outlets, and conference centers.

After a spirited international competition full of bold and innovative design proposals, Dutch architecture firm MVRDV was declared the winner and will be handling designs for the EU TUMO Convergence Center. Perched overlooking Yerevan’s Hrazdan River Gorge, plans for the new facility are in progress.
