RAFIK B. HARIRI BUILDING Event Guidelines and Procedures Rafik B. Hariri Building

The 179,000 square foot Rafik B. Hariri Building houses all aspects of the business program at Georgetown University under one roof. It opened to all students in the fall of 2009 and features 15 classrooms, 34 breakout rooms, 15 conference rooms, 11 interview rooms, a 410 seat audito- rium, two large lounges, and 120 faculty offices. Student space is replete with data ports, flat-screen monitors, and videoconferencing capabilities, allowing for global connectivity.

The abundant aesthetics of the building include a blend of stone masonry and steel on the south elevation reminiscent of the university’s original architecture combined with a panoramic glass pavilion on the east elevation. Together these designs symbolize the mix of traditional business foundations and forethought apparent in the education offered at Georgetown’s McDonough School of Business. A soaring glass atrium serves as the core of the building, providing literal transparency of students’ education—putting business on display.
