Powell-Focht Bioengineering Hall, the newest building addition to the Jacobs School of Engineering, opened its doors to students and faculty at the start of winter quarter. While minor construction is still taking place inside the new Powell-Focht building, lab research has started and faculty and staff have moved into the five-story building adjacent to Bioengineering Building 1 in Earl Warren College.
The building, constructed in response to the rapidly growing engineering student enrollment, caters to both undergraduate and graduate students as well as to research faculty.
