SciTech Master Plan
Columbus, Ohio

Science & Technology Campus Corporation

Machines in the prairie

SciTech is a non-profit company founded to develop new or renovated facilities to house developing technology-based businesses that grow from University research. Sci Tech controls a motley collection of disconnected properties on the west campus of the University – both land and buildings – through a master lease with, and major financial support from, The Ohio State University, and with additional financial support from the City of Columbus, and the State of Ohio. The arrangement permits SciTech to develop new construction in increments of 50,000 square feet. The Science & Technology Campus may expand beyond the initial 37 acre holding, depending upon the development plan success.

The Master Plan strategy includes preservation of the “prairie project” lands and the open space meadows of west campus sites, achievement of development presence through a clustering of projects, and the development of architecturally unique facilities which celebrate the technologies of both architecture and research.
