Laboratory Space and Equipment
Students in the health sciences require laboratory space in which to
conduct various experiments and complete required projects. The
Multidiscipline Teaching Laboratories consist of ten (10) teaching
laboratories located on two floors. The Multidiscipline Teaching
Laboratories maintains and equips labs with the necessary materials.
Each assigned student has his/her individual learning area equipped with
space for microscope work, wet lab procedures and storage cabinets for
supplies. Computers are available in each laboratory for student use
with access to the library and the Internet. Additionally, the division
provides support in the areas of laboratory instruction and
demonstrations. Multidiscipline Teaching Laboratories is responsible for
assigning lab space and employee support for each lab.

a "Property Removal Permit," issued from the Teaching Support
administrative office.
