PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

The Undergraduate Life Sciences Teaching Labs Renewal project involved the renewal and expansion of the Biological Sciences complex to provide flexible, modern, and well-equipped interdisciplinary teaching laboratories for over 2,000 students. The project also included replacement of research, administrative, and core services for the departments of botany and zoology.

Existing mechanical and electrical facilities were upgraded along with seismic, life safety, and Building Code enhancements. The new facilities were designed to achieve LEED Gold certification.
