Burdine Hall, Academic building at University of Texas at Austin, United States
Burdine Hall is an academic building at the University of Texas at Austin with eight stories designed to house classrooms, faculty offices, and research spaces. The structure accommodates multiple departments and centers focused on language studies and international research.
The building opened in 1970 under the original name North Campus Classroom-Office before eventually taking its current name. It was created to address the campus's growing need for instructional and office space during that era.
The Department of Germanic Studies, Slavic and Eurasian Studies, and multiple research centers focused on international studies occupy spaces within the building.
Visitors find the building easily accessible from University Avenue with multiple parking options nearby on campus. The central location makes it straightforward to reach on foot from most other campus areas.
The exterior features a distinctive window pattern that resembles the punched holes of early computer cards. This design choice connects the building's practical purpose with a subtle reference to the technological era in which it was built.
