Wedged between the Life Sciences Building and the Clinical Center, MSU has broken new ground.
In honor of a new on-campus bioengineering facility on Service Road, a ground-breaking ceremony was held Wednesday afternoon, with figures such as MSU President Lou Anna K. Simon and acting provost June Youatt in attendance.
The estimated 130,000 square-foot building officially was approved for planning by the MSU Board of Trustees in September 2011. At the time, it was expected to cost close to $40 million.
The facility is expected to be complete in August 2015. Upon its completion, it is expected to serve as a place for MSU scientists from several disciplines to work together on research ventures.
