Administrative History

The State University Construction Fund (SUCF)is a public benefit corporation established in 1962 (Chapter 251, Laws of 1962) to manage and administer the State University of New York's construction program. SUCF is responsible for planning, design, and construction on state-operated campuses and special facilities of the State University of New York.

The SUCF building program does not include community college facilities. The SUCF is governed by three trustees appointed by the Governor, who also selects the chairman. The trustees, in turn, appoint a General Manager of the SUCF who is responsible for the management and administration of the two major operating divisions and the service units of the Fund.

One of the major operating divisions, the Division of Design and Construction, has responsibility for supervising and assisting the commissioned and private architects and engineers for a project from the beginning of design through its completion.
