Mayo Clinic Health System has secured a 30-year lease for integrated research workspace in the new Science and Health Sciences Building at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. This project is set to begin this summer, with construction on the state-of-the-art building commencing. The 330,000-square-foot facility will replace the outdated Phillips Hall and provide space for multiple academic programs including biology, chemistry and biochemistry, computer science, geography and anthropology, geology and environmental science, public health and environmental studies, neuroscience, materials science and biomedical engineering, physics and astronomy, and nursing.
Mayo Clinic Health System has committed $13.7 million to the project and will occupy 10,000 square feet of research, instructional, office, and meeting space within the building. This collaboration between Mayo Clinic Health System and UW-Eau Claire in the new research workspace is expected to enhance research opportunities for students and faculty.
The partnership signifies a significant investment in the future of healthcare and research at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. It demonstrates a commitment to advancing scientific knowledge and providing cutting-edge educational opportunities for students in the region. With this agreement in place, students will have access to more resources than ever before as they pursue their academic goals in these fields.
