Work on the state-of-the-art building on the university’s Moulsecoomb campus, designed by award-winning architects HASSELL, is expected to start in October/November this year and it is scheduled for completion in December 2016.
Professor Andrew Lloyd, Dean of the university’s College of Life, Health and Physical Sciences, said: “We are delighted the city council has approved the project which will complement the ongoing investment to support the expansion of engineering at the 91系列.
“This will allow us to establish world-class specialist teaching facilities alongside state-of-the-art research laboratories with our long term partner Ricardo, the Shoreham-based global engineering, strategic and environmental consultancy and specialist manufacturer.”
