Nova Southeastern University to Build $80 Million Research Facility
NSU Center for Collaborative Research.
On Thursday, Feb. 13, NSU broke ground on a revolutionary Center for Collaborative Research (CCR) that will house one of Florida’s largest wet labs, the NSU Technology Incubator and some of the world’s most accomplished researchers.
“This new multidisciplinary center will provide our world-class team of researchers with the tools they need to continue to make discoveries that will impact the way we all live,” said NSU President George L. Hanbury, Ph.D. “From developing new cancer treatments to finding new methods for environmental sustainability, the possibilities are endless.”
Located on NSU’s main campus in Davie, Fla., the 215,000 sq.-ft.-facility will cost approximately $80 million to construct and equip. NSU, the nation’s ninth largest private not-for-profit university, is funding the center using a combination of its own reserves and tax-exempt financing. Construction is expected to be completed in 2016.
“The Center for Collaborative Research will expand the university’s research capability and provide the infrastructure to advance knowledge, support innovations, and develop new research partnerships,” said Gary S. Margules, Sc.D., vice president for the NSU Office of Research and Technology Transfer.
