Photos: Inside the Science and Engineering Hall
January 19, 2015
GW’s Science and Engineering Hall opened for classes for the first time this week. The building had been under construction since 2011. Katie Causey | Hatchet Staff Photographer
The SEH houses 118 faculty and researchers from both the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences and the School of Engineering and Applied Science. Sam Hardgrove | Hatchet Staff Photographer
University officials hope to add the Science and Engineering Hall to the five new buildings on campus that have already received Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certifications from the U.S. Green Building Council. Katie Causey | Hatchet Staff Photographer
Common areas are spread throughout the building, including a “teaching tower” that architects designed as a study space for students. Sam Hardgrove | Hatchet Staff Photographer
Faculty were given the chance to create “wish lists” of equipment and other materials they wanted in their labs, and will pitch those requests to donors. Nicole Radivilov | Hatchet Staff Photographer
Faculty and staff began moving into the building in December, a month earlier than University officials had initially expected. Katie Causey | Hatchet Staff Photographer
The opening of the hall freed up in space in other campus buildings, which means GW won’t renew its leases at 2020 K St. and 1776 G St. Nicole Radivilov | Hatchet Staff Photographer
University officials were forced to change the funding plan for the Science and Engineering Hall after fundraising fell through for the $275 million building. Sam Hardgrove | Hatchet Staff Photographer
