La Jolla, Calif.
UCSD's Jacobs School of Engineering is building a 5-story, 105,000-sf bioengineering facility at the La Jolla campus. The $34 million Powell-Focht Bioengineering Hall will house five labs for researchers and graduate students, one lab per floor, each focused on a specific research area. Ground was broken in August 2000 on the facility, which is expected to open in 2002.
