New Science Building

Coming in 2026

A brand new state of the art science building will be coming to Wesleyan University in 2026. It will house the departments of Chemistry, Molecular Biology & Biochemistry, and Biology. To facilitate collaboration, communication, and shared resources, clusters of 4-5 research labs will be grouped together with interconnecting doors and a shared write-up space. In addition to brand new facilities, there will be numerous informal meeting areas, modern classrooms and teaching labs, as well as a cafe.
