Our classrooms and specialized research laboratories are located in the Cooper Physical Science Building.
We have a variety of high-tech scientific equipment, which you are encouraged to use. A lot of our instruments are the same kind you would find on the popular show CSI. The best part is that you just don’t watch your professors use the equipment; you actually use it yourself.
