Summary

Description
English: Looking northwest from the Quad at the Chemistry & Biochemistry Building on the campus of Montana State University in Bozeman, Montana.

Completed in fall 2007, the $23.3 million, 73,000 square-foot, four-story Chemistry & Biochemistry Building houses laboratories and offices for 20 MSU researchers and 180 graduate assistants, research assistants and support staff. It was designed by the architectural firm of L'Heureux, Page, Werner, of Great Falls, Montana, with laboratories designed by RFD (Research Facilities Design of San Diego, California). The building was paid for with bonds. The principal and interest on the bonds is paid for by facilities and administrative (F&A) costs embedded in grants and contract awards that come from the U.S. federal government. The state of Montana contributed nothing toward the building.

The laboratories in the brick, glass, masonry, and metal building will line the exterior of the structure. In the center is a large lecture hall known as the "think tank", designed for high-tech collaborative lecture, study, and discussion. Offices are built in clusters, so that research assistants, graduate stuents, and support staff are gathered around key faculty and research scientists. The building features a four-story atrium with glass curtain walls over the entrance.

The Chemistry & Biochemistry Building also houses the Center for Bio-Inspired NanoMaterials, the Thermal Biology Institute, and the CoBRE Center for the Analysis of Cellular Mechanisms and Systems Biology.

As of December 2012, MSU's Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry ranked 28th in the nation in the number of federal research dollars received -- more than Yale, Princeton, or other top U.S. schools. Yet, it is one of the smallest such departments in the Northwest United States, with just 18 full-time tenure-track faculty (compared to 40 for other schools.
