Mason Science Series Upcoming Events

We’re excited to invite you to a special next Mason Science Series event: “Whiskey, Widgets, and Science!” The College of Science is partnering with the College of Engineering and Computing to co-host their established (and wildly popular) Whiskey & Widgets event on May 4th at the cutting-edge Life Science and Engineering Building at our Manassas Campus. 

This event will feature faculty hosted lab tours and conversations with faculty, along with interactive demonstrations and student presentations--and whiskey tastings!

Opened in March 2025, George Mason University's new $107 million Life Sciences and Engineering Building at the Science and Technology (SciTech) Campus at Manassas offers over 30 state-of-the-art teaching labs and fabrication facilities, enabling students and faculty to get their hands dirty in a multiuse active learning space. The 4,500 to 5,000 students pursuing their degrees at the SciTech Campus are studying athletic training and kinesiology, microbiology, chemistry, engineering, forensic science, robotics, autonomous vehicles and more. For College of Science students, the 4-story, 132,000-square foot LSEB strengthens impact in biology, systems biology, chemistry and biochemistry, and forensic science. Together, these five academic programs account for almost 25% of the College of Science's $50M in funded research.
