Wright Construction was selected as the general contractor to build the Welcome Center at Missouri State University. The Welcome Center serves as an initial stop for students and visitors to the campus. Students enter a spacious, well-appointed lobby area and have access to private offices, a conference room, a restroom area and a 100-seat auditorium.

The Welcome Center project was strategic in solidifying Wright Construction’s presence in the higher education market, representing the company’s fourth higher education campus project. Geographically, the project also represented an opportunity for future expansion and diversification on upcoming projects throughout southwest Missouri.
