The MUN - Core Science Facility (CSF) is a new multi-use facility at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. Johns Campus.

The CSF will be the largest and most modern Facility on Campus, with a total floor area in excess of 440,000sf.

The CSF will truly be a multi-discipline Facility, providing space for the Department of Biology, Department of Chemistry, Department of Physics, the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science and others. The new CSF will provide unique collaboration spaces for inter-disciplinary meetings.

Additionally, the CSF will provide quality flexible high end research and laboratory and teaching spaces in addition to office and administration spaces. One of the main focuses during design of the CSF is creating a flexible adaptable Facility for future students and researchers.

Pedestrian Links from the CSF to other campus buildings are planned with design work for a major above ground link to the University Centre included in the present scope of services.
