Integrated Science Complex
Building New Pathways to Discovery
The construction of a new science complex is an exciting next chapter in the story of science education at Holy Cross.
Not only will the new complex dramatically integrate campus science buildings with one another, it will also offer many more opportunities for interdisciplinary teaching and learning. Innovations in teaching science have long been a hallmark of the College’s undergraduate curriculum. The new complex will take those innovations further: uniting student and faculty researchers from across scientific disciplines, as well as stimulating more collaboration and sharing of sophisticated equipment.
The project is being conducted in two phases. Construction of a new four-story building that will be linked to the existing science and social science buildings on campus (Beaven, O’Neil, and Swords halls) began in the spring of 2007 with occupancy expected in January 2009. Immediately thereafter, top-to-bottom renovation of Haberlin Hall will begin. The 45-year-old building will be gutted and completely rebuilt, with an expected completion date of January 2010.
