In the second phase of work for the Chemistry Building Addition and Modernization projects, HED designs a new building to provide core facilities and laboratories for the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering and Materials Science programs as well as other related disciplines. Rather than housing a single department, this project will deliver laboratory, research, and office space for faculty in chemistry, chemical engineering, and materials science, providing a common home for interdisciplinary interactions.
It will focus on projects requiring state-of-the-art experimental facilities. Some of these facilities will be specialized to particular needs, but there will be substantial shared experimental space. The Chemistry and Chemistry Annex renovations will create modern, high-capability wet labs with researcher workstations and principal investigator offices.
