Bart Bruchok from the Department of Veterans Affairs in Orlando, Florida, has joined the Facilities Management Department as director of capital projects.
Associate Vice Chancellor for Facilities Management Phil Jones stated, “Bart comes to us with a wealth of experience in facilities management, construction management and leadership.”
Bruchok served as project manager and chief engineer in the Navy Civil Engineer Corps both domestically and overseas and as assistant director for construction at the University of Central Florida. At the Department of Veterans Affairs, he served as project executive for a complex and highly visible mega-project.
“I hope to use my past experience with other high-performing institutions to lead the capital projects team to even greater levels of achievement in providing new facilities for which students, staff and faculty can be proud,” said Bruchok.
A graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, Bruchok completed a Master of Business Administration from the University of Maryland.
He assumed duties previously held by John Fessler, who retired earlier this year.
