New Science Labs at ACT Support New Students and New Programs in Sciences

This past summer, two new science laboratories, one for Physics and the other for Biology, were added to the Science Wing of Constantinidis Hall with a Lab for Organic Chemistry slated to be finished during the spring semester of 2022. These new labs were constructed to support expanding demand of our undergraduates as well as to service the growing number of Study Abroad students seeking majors in sciences.

The labs at ACT are equipped with state-of-the-art laboratory instruments and devices in order to carry out molecular, biochemical, and physiological analyses. These include qualitative and quantitative determination of gene expression, the study of metabolic pathways, and investigation of physiological parameters under stressful conditions. The laboratory facilities give students access to an impressive array of technologies, equipment, and apparatuses. Combined with the expertise of the faculty members who run the labs and carry out numerous research projects, students have the space and support to grow scientifically and become part of a flourishing academic community.
