Four instructional laboratories provide discovery-based learning opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students. These spaces and the Bioengineering departmental suite on the third floor are arranged around a sculptural, redundant flight of stairs that provides an easy connection to the research floors. The research laboratories support the most advanced experimental and theoretical work in the application of engineering to biology and health. A visually and acoustically perfect auditorium occupies the lowest level.
