Project Description
The new biology building is a four-story, 154,000-square-foot teaching and research facility. The LEED Gold-certified structure houses the CSU biology department, including research labs, special collections used for teaching, faculty offices and idea space for collaboration. A large portion of the building is also dedicated to classrooms, teaching labs, student common spaces, advising and tutoring offices, and study rooms. The biology department is the largest in the College of Natural Sciences at CSU, with more than 1,400 undergraduate students studying in the biological science or zoology majors. The project was completed by the design-build team of Hord Coplan Macht and Haselden Construction.
