The official opening of the Science Centre at Staffordshire University on Leek Road, Stoke is to take place on Friday 12th October at 12 noon.  

The ceremony is to be exacted by science graduate and English rower come Olympic gold medallist Andrew Triggs Hodge.  The centre will recognise Staffordshire University as a major school of excellence in the field of science and learning and will house schools such as Psychology and Forensic and Crime Science.

The building itself is an impressive piece of architecture which features 2745 anodized aluminium panels setting it apart from similar modern architectures of the day (right click for image).

The interior of the centre is white-coat like and lab-futuristic in nature, fused with bright and modern designs of the 21st Century.  In fact, one could argue that parts of the interior settings would not look out of place in a scene from that popular 1976 Sci Fi thriller Logan's Run.

    “Looks good, we must now turn this building and all who enter there (students, researchers, etc) into the best that they can be, utilizing the ultra modern equipment and facilities that it offers.

    Congratulations on a job well done and vision accomplish. This New department will compliment the Business and Law School also located on the Leek Road site very well”
