Pigman Hall

Opened in 2015, Pigman Hall is centrally located on the site of Cooperstown (originally Cooper Village) which was named for Thomas P. Cooper, a former dean of the UK College of Agriculture. Cooper Village originated in 1945 as a “G.I. City” consisting of 324 prefabricated housing units for married veterans. The prefabricated units were eventually removed and replaced in 1956 by seven graduate and family apartment buildings.

In December 2022, the residence hall was officially renamed to honor Stan and Karen Pigman's impact on the College of Engineering. The Pigmans have a history of dedicated philanthropy to the university that has spanned more than two decades. Additionally, they have financially supported and mentored more than 200 students. The Pigmans have not only endowed need-based scholarships within the university, but they also provide scholarships for 70 UK engineering students each year.

Pigman Hall houses the Engineering Living Learning Program.
