Saint Joseph's University embraces the belief that new information technologies are essential to positioning the institution at the forefront of business schools.  A new facility for the Haub School of Business and the Academy of Food Marketing is a step toward becoming a leader in advancing the union of business and technology.  The modern gothic architectural style of the building pays homage to Saint Joseph's heritage, while the interior contains the latest technological advances in multimedia and data communication.  Fiber optic cabling provides satellite uplinking capabilities, which allows the university to broadcast to corporations and businesses worldwide, as well as to a 350-seat "teletorium."  Other features include faculty department suites, a resource center, moot boardrooms, classrooms, a computer lab, a test kitchen, and a dining room.
