|
Posted By: Reginald Culpepper on November 16, 2023 Moving one step closer to the realization of the construction of a state-of-the-art facility to house STEM programs, Morgan State University today revealed designs for its new estimated $342-million Science and Research Complex, slated to open in fall 2027. The Architect of Record (AOR) is Moody Nolan, Inc., the nation’s largest African-American-owned architecture firm, in collaboration with two associate architects, Cannon Design and K. Dixon Architecture. The design showcases a modern facility equipped with the latest technological features for advanced instruction, very high research activity, and scientific discovery. The eight-story, 246,000-gross-square-foot structure will be situated near the corner of E. Cold Spring Lane and Stadium Way, across from the current Richard N. Dixon Science Research Center. The unveiling of the new renderings marks a significant milestone for Morgan as the University continues to invest in the future of its science education and research. The Science and Research Complex will advance the university’s commitment to attaining an R1 (very high research activity) Carnegie classification and bolster Morgan’s position as a national hub for innovation, collaboration, and cutting-edge research. “The visionary design for Morgan’s new Science and Research Complex represents the culmination of more than a decade-long journey to deliver a world-class academic and research facility that is commensurate with the research capacity and output that is representative of this very consequential institution,” said David K. Wilson, president of Morgan. “The construction of what surely will be a magnificent facility will be instrumental in advancing the institution’s research endeavors and cementing Morgan among the highest echelon of national research universities.” If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
