In August 2016, the University of Kentucky will be welcoming a new icon to campus with the opening of the Academic Science Building. Focusing on integration across scientific fields and levels, the Academic Science Building will celebrate the relationship between research and learning while providing new opportunities for students. The 263,000 SF new facilities will focus on providing state-of-the-art undergraduate teaching and research laboratories, formal and informal learning spaces, for biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics and geosciences.
The identified site for the building is at the corner of Rose Street and Huguelet Drive. This high profile location allows the project to be a gateway between the medical and main campuses.
