Duffy Science Centre
Duffy Science Centre opened in 1966 after a donation was received from Dr. St. Clair Duffy of Kinkora to assist in the construction of a new science building. In 2004, a greenhouse was added that is being used for research on wild roses.
The Duffy Science Centre underwent a major renewal in 2005 to better serve the requirements of the Faculty of Science. The work consisted of revising the building鈥檚 layout and a full upgrade of the building鈥檚 mechanical and electrical systems. A new larger elevator was also installed. This revitalized facility provides students with first-class learning facilities and enables faculty in the Biology department to carry out their research programs in modern, thematically designed laboratories.
