The Mars G. Fontana Laboratories is phase I of the Biomedical and Materials Engineering Complex. The building opened in August 2020 and aligns with Framework 2.0 and the university’s strategic plan, by enhancing both teaching and learning through improved facilities and support space.
Ohio State is committed to sustainability and recently released a plan to reduce its carbon emissions by 55% by 2030. To advance these efforts, the university sought and recently obtained approval from the Ohio Power Siting Board to build a Combined Heat and Power Plant (CHP) that will provide a new source of heat and electricity to campus via a District Heating and Cooling Loop (DHC).
The Optometry Clinic and Health Sciences Faculty Office Building, located at the southwest corner of W. 11th Avenue and Neil Avenue, will include optometry clinics, retail, faculty offices and support spaces. It is scheduled to open in November 2020.
