The Wold Center also houses the Aerogel Fabrication, Characterization and Applications Lab; the Kelly Advanced Computing Laboratory; the vibration-isolated Laboratory for Electrical Engineering and Music Research; the Energy and Environmental Engineering Suite; and a rooftop energy lab. LEED Gold sustainable design certification will be sought for the project.
