ConocoPhillips Integrated Science Building (CPISB)
In 2008, ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc. pledged $15 million to support sciences and
engineering at UAA. The ConocoPhillips Integrated Sciences Building (CPISB) houses instructional and research laboratories, plus modern classrooms for lab-based science programs such as Astronomy, Biological Sciences, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Geological Studies, Physics, and other degree-seeking fields. The facility also houses analytical labs, an auditorium, and a Planetarium and Visualization Theater. The 120,000 square foot facility is designed as three modules linked by a massive glass atrium that serves as a hub for students, faculty and staff. This exceptional, multi-disciplinary building is dedicated to the collaborative community of science and world-class education, faculty and instructional research, and interdisciplinary science.
