The Kern Center, a stunning 210,000-square-foot recreation, athletic, health, wellness, and fitness center was dedicated in Fall 2004. It is the first such facility for MSOE which competes in NCAA Division III athletics. The center exemplifies MSOE’s philosophy of a well-rounded university experience and is an important asset in attracting prospective students and providing current students with ample access to fitness, whether they are participating in NCAA athletics, intramural sports, or individual fitness programs. Fall 2007 marked the dedication of the university’s first museum building. The Grohmann Museum is home to the Man at Work Art Collection. With more than 800 European and American paintings and sculptures that depict various forms of work, Man at Work: The Eckhart G. Grohmann Collection at Milwaukee School of Engineering is the world’s most comprehensive collection of its kind. The artworks span over 400 years of history (17-20th centuries) and comprise a variety of styles and subjects that document the evolution of organized work, from manpower and horsepower, to water, steam, and electrical power. The works were gifted to MSOE in 2001 from the collection of Milwaukee businessman and collector Dr. Eckhart Grohmann.
