Support Science at FLC
Building for the Future
The demand for a workforce with science competency is expected to increase, especially in our region. Jobs in the Sacramento region through 2050 will outpace the state and nation in job growth. Science is at the core of innovation and our region needs a growing workforce to develop solutions to today's toughest challenges. Science on Display at Folsom Lake College is preparing for that future today with the construction of a new Science Center.
Science on Display
Science on Display is a philosophy of teaching and learning - integrating science studies into the simple experience of walking through the building. An Invitation to Build the Future of Science at Folsom Lake College The Science Building will celebrate a new entry way to the Folsom Lake campus.
Upon completion, the 75,000 sq. ft. LEED Certified instructional building will be the largest science facility within the Los Rios Community College District. Completion is projected for 2024, with classes being offered in the new building for the Spring 2025 semester. The total cost of the building is $81 million and is funded through a state facility funding and local Measure M bonds.
However, these dollars only cover construction related expenses and not the enhanced equipment to make the facility state-of-the-art. To bridge this gap, Folsom Lake College and the Los Rios Colleges Foundation are embarking on a fundraising campaign to raise funds for the transformational equipment and technology. We invite you to partner with us to create this bold investment in our community's future.
