SIDNEY L. OLSON RESEARCH CENTER

The Sidney L. Olson Research Center, adjacent to the new Polymer Engineering Academic Center, houses space for the Department and Institute of Biomedical Engineering and the Department and Institute of Polymer Engineering. The four-floor Center is 72,340 square feet and has 119 rooms. The building was completed in 1928, but The University of Akron did not acquire it until 1979. It provides space for the operation and housing of laboratories, instrumentation and equipment required for polymer engineering research.
