Georgia State University, Parker H. Petit Science Center, Atlanta
The new $125-million, multidisciplinary Parker H. Petit Science Center in the heart of downtown Atlanta augments laboratory and classroom space to accommodate an expanding and changing curriculum. It also enhances the east side “science zone” of Georgia State University’s urban campus.
In addition to basic science teaching and research labs for the College of Arts and Sciences and Health and Human Services, the new science center is home to GSU’s research and education programs in biology, chemistry, nursing, nutrition and physical and respiratory therapies.
