The LS Skaggs Applied Science Building, part of the Crocker Sciences Complex, is the new cornerstone of the University of Utah’s educational and research mission. It embodies a commitment to excellence, innovation and a bright future for the University of Utah’s academic and research pursuits. Student success is supported by a high-quality classroom experience, training in modern scientific and technological methods and a signature research experience for each major in the program. With a focus on accommodating the instructional needs of over 5,600 undergraduate and graduate students in STEM courses, the facility combines a thoughtful 40,000+ SF renovation of the historic Stewart Building with a contemporary 100,000+ SF addition.

Fulfilling the company’s need for a local office and regional corporate training center, the building program balanced the space needs between individual and collective working habits and spaces for large training and conference room settings. Pending LEED Gold Certification, the striking L-shaped design extends to both street fronts, enlivening the pedestrian experience and setting a precedent for transit-oriented design along the rapidly growing North Temple corridor. Located adjacent to the TRAX stop that connects Utah’s two largest cities to the airport, the building encourages local employees and out-of-town staff to commute via public transportation.
