Westmoreland County Community College Science Innovation Center
In an effort to enact transformative change, a 19,500 sf new addition to Science Hall on the Youngwood, PA campus was designed. The newly renovated Science Innovation Center is faculty and student focused, specifically providing more efficient and dynamic layouts for the biological life sciences. The spaces are activated through a dynamic section that harvests daylight and differentiates space. The design supports state-of-the-art equipment and technology for teaching the life sciences, as well as provides highly engaging student/ teacher collaboration space. The addition provides a face to Science Hall, elevating the learning environment to a 21st century home for the sciences.
