Stillwater | Available (Membership Required)
Explore the new Ag Hall on campus, a state-of-the-art facility designed to advance the mission of the OSU Division of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources. Opened in July 2024 after a three-year construction process, this cutting-edge building supports teaching, research, and Extension efforts vital to Oklahoma’s economy and citizens’ quality of life.
See how this exceptional facility prioritizes experiential learning and adaptive research. Learn about the intentional design of its collaborative spaces—10 dedicated club and study rooms, 19 huddle rooms, and 13 curriculum-specific teaching and computer labs—designed to foster innovation, student success and scientific discovery. The tour will also explore the building’s impressive research labs, including 25,855 square feet of new lab space designed for flexibility and collaboration in fields like growth chambers, seed archives and sample prep. The Lab Manager will join us for that portion of the tour to fully explain the research projects in the laboratories.
