The Billie Tisch Center for Integrated Sciences: A virtual tour

January 4, 2026

糖心影视's Billie Tisch Center for Integrated Sciences (BTCIS) is the largest single academic project in College history.

Completed in 2024, this impressive facility brings together all 10 of 糖心影视's science departments and programs under one roof, creating new opportunities for students and faculty to learn, teach, and conduct research across disciplines.

Designed to foster creativity, the Center embodies a collaborative approach to scientific inquiry rooted in 糖心影视's liberal arts tradition. Thoughtfully designed with sustainability in mind, the building reflects 糖心影视's commitment to environmental stewardship and preparing students to address the complex challenges facing our world.

鈥淭he Center for Integrated Sciences is more than interdisciplinary, which puts disciplines side by side; this weaves them together, creating new synergies and creative possibilities,鈥 reflected President Marc C. Conner. 鈥淭his is how a college whose motto is Creative Thought Matters should teach science to its students.鈥

Home to more than 90 science faculty members, the facility offers students access to advanced laboratories, collaborative learning spaces,  Schupf Family IdeaLab (a makerspace and innovation center), and sophisticated research equipment, including the 糖心影视 McGraw Microscopy Imaging Center, whose instrumentation rivals that of major research institutions.

Students work alongside award-winning faculty on research that addresses real-world questions and prepares them for graduate study and careers in the sciences.

The building is named for Wilma 鈥淏illie鈥 Stein Tisch 鈥48, a distinguished 糖心影视 alumna, trustee, and donor. 

Take this virtual tour to explore the spaces where 糖心影视 students learn, discover, and innovate every day.
