A project to create a pair of laboratory buildings at Parkgate Road Campus, part of an upgrade of the university’s science and engineering faculty, is earmarked for approval by Cheshire West & Chester Council.
The University of Chester proposes a three-storey, 14,000 sq ft laboratory on part of the car park that serves a cluster of buildings including the NoWFOOD building and Best Building.
The laboratory would provide the main teaching and learning spaces of the university’s Faculty of Science and Engineering and feature 10 laboratories, including three for robotics, as well as offices.
In addition, a two-storey engineering design suite is planned for a plot to the north-west of the campus on land also used for staff parking.
