 BIOEGINEERING BUILDING

The Bio-Engineering Building (BEB) is an important milestone in the new phase of campus development at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). The BEB will connect to the new Drug Discovery Building (DDB), as the second of three coordinated buildings to be located immediately to the west of the existing Basic Sciences Building. Together, they will not only provide much needed research space, but also help to define two important new landscaped open spaces to serve the campus and the neighborhood. As such, the BEB has been designed with sustainable features throughout the site and building itself. Sustainable design, i.e. minimizing energy consumption, reducing water use, using non-hazardous materials, and minimizing adverse impacts on the sensitive site was established to be one of the key design principles for the BEB by the University.
