The Roosevelt Science Center (RSC) building was originally constructed in 1953 as a men's residence hall. In 1995, an addition was added and the facility was re-purposed as the Roosevelt Science Center with a total square footage of approximately 42,000 square feet.

The RSC currently houses all of our science department faculty offices, classrooms, labs and interpretive learning exhibit functions. Various courses and labs taught are in biology, chemistry, ecology, fisheries and wildlife, microbiology, physiology, entomology and pre-med.
