Butte College inches closer to completion of new science building with placement of final beam – Chico Enterprise-Record

The final beam of Butte College’s new 72,276-square-foot science building was recently placed in Butte Valley. The campus community gathered at the construction site to celebrate this milestone in the construction process. The building construction began in April 2023 and is scheduled to open in fall 2025.

The new science building will include a planetarium, sustainable facilities, upgraded classrooms, and collaborative study spaces. It will offer classes in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, construction management, nursing, allied health, and general education in the sciences.

Funding for this project comes from Measure J, a $190 million bond measure approved by voters in November 2016, as well as the state’s Physical Plant and Instructional Support Block Grant. This new building represents a significant investment in expanding and enhancing the educational facilities at Butte College for students and the campus community.
