The new facility features cutting-edge facilities that will help students stay ahead of the innovation curve. Several laboratory spaces, six classroom spaces, and a greenhouse suite are among some of Center’s features that help promote hands-on learning in the STEM fields. The new facility provides three times the amount of space for science education when compared with the university’s previous facilities.
