The 206,000-square-foot building will be the new home for the college’s degree and certificate programs in biology, chemistry, physical sciences and mathematics.
It is the largest project completed as part of San Diego Community College District‘s $1.55 billion Propositions S and N construction bond program, according to district officials.
The energy-efficient building includes classrooms, computer classrooms, teaching lab classrooms and faculty, staff and administrative support space. Specialty spaces include a greenhouse and astronomy observation center.
Exterior landscaping features globally-themed gardens, including an Australian garden and a South African garden.
The project is on track to obtain a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) silver certification from the United States Green Building Council.
