Science Area, Oxford, Research center at University of Oxford, England

The Science Area extends south of University Parks and north of South Parks Road, containing departments for chemistry, physics, engineering, and biochemistry studies.

The area evolved from its origins in the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, established in 1860, expanding as scientific departments required additional space.

Modern laboratories and research facilities in the Science Area foster collaborations between international scientists and students across multiple scientific disciplines.

The district contains specialized equipment and research facilities accessible to students and faculty members through departmental registration and safety protocols.

The biochemistry building incorporates architectural elements designed by Hawkinsrown, featuring specialized laboratories for molecular research and experimental studies.
