Clemson University is constructing the Advanced Materials Innovation Complex in Clemson, S.C. The 143,000-sf facility will feature collaborative research suites where teams of investigators can discover new technologies for advanced manufacturing, energy, and health. HOK's innovative design for the center strengthens interdisciplinary synergies by collocating the Department of Materials Science and Engineering with select faculty from the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering.

Built by DPR Construction, the sustainable development will also offer sophisticated teaching labs, experiential learning environments, meeting spaces, and faculty offices. All students in the complex will conduct research, helping prepare them to be future leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs in advanced materials. Ground was broken on the project in May of 2023 and completion is expected in October of 2025.
