From investment to innovation
As part of the University’s £1bn campus redevelopment programme, the Joseph Black Building – home to the School of Chemistry – is receiving a £35m make over. Over the centuries investment in chemistry at Glasgow has led to ground-breaking discoveries and world-changing research. Current head of the school Professor Graeme Cooke is well aware of the department’s past achievements and expects that this latest investment in chemistry will be a catalyst for even greater things to come.
“By creating a modern environment which is sympathetic to the historic building, open-plan laboratories and world-class facilities we will encourage and strengthen multidisciplinary activities and collaboration throughout the school and with our industrial partners.”
