The newly founded University of Pristina was unable to house all university departments on campus in the center. Alternatively, the Faculty of Technical Sciences was built on the other end of the city. Designed in 1972, the building’s exposed béton brut was a statement by its architect Edvard Radnikar, a student of Le Corbusier, who thereby contributed to the expansion of the stylistic presence of brutalism in the city. Alterations to the building’s facade took place in 2017, as well as protests opposing the act. The building has kept most of its primary functions, but is no longer brutalist in style.
