"On October 19, 2016 the Universities at Shady Grove (USG) broke ground on its Biomedical Sciences and Engineering Education Facility (BSE).  Lieutenant Governor Boyd Rutherford, Maryland State Senator Nancy King, Montgomery County Executive Isiah Leggett and University System of Maryland Chancellor Robert Caret all came together to applaud USG and the county and state’s commitment to higher education.

When the building opens in 2019, Maryland’s premier research universities, including University of Maryland, Baltimore, University of Maryland, College Park and UMBC will offer undergraduate and graduate degree opportunities in critical and rapidly growing industries, including healthcare, biosciences, engineering and computational sciences.

The new facility, designed by the nationally renowned architectural firm Cooper Carry and its partner Lake/Flato, will be one of the most sustainably sourced and built laboratory buildings in the country. It will include teaching laboratories, collaborative learning

spaces, clinical training facilities, academic offices and expanded student services."
