A combo for transformative innovation
EXP is steps away from our Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Complex, and they’re linked by a pedestrian bridge that connects the north and south sections of the Boston campus. EXP and ISEC put research on display, and together they’ve transformed the Columbus Avenue corridor into a cutting-edge hub for experience-driven research, learning, and collaboration.
