This new state-of-the-art Science, Engineering & Technology Building at Dixie State University includes labs and classrooms for its established science programs and its burgeoning new engineering and technology programs. At the heart of the building is a collaborative student study core that brings all the building’s disciplines together to create a community of science and technology learners. These spaces are identified by a wood ceiling meant to evoke a forest canopy.

All of the laboratory spaces are light-filled with views of the beautiful natural landscape that surrounds St. George.

The engineering program has well-equipped student project labs with direct access to a service yard that becomes a critical outdoor overflow project space. The engineering student project labs are adjacent to the woodshop and the prototyping labs, providing the ultimate maker spaces.
