Auburn invests in the infrastructure that makes innovation possible.

On Friday, June 5, 2026, The Auburn University Board of Trustees approved a 77-acre expansion of The Park, bringing the total size to just over 240 acres.

The expansion will accommodate a newly established Advanced Manufacturing Research District, anchored by the industry-leading Auburn University RFID Lab. This new district will create more opportunities for private-sector partners to co-locate with Auburn experts.
