If reporting certified projects, provide:
Cal Poly uses the United States Green Building Council's LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating system to guide sustainable design of new buildings, renovations, and operations. As per CSU policy, all new facilities are designed to be equivalent to a minimum LEED Certified level, with the goal of each project achieving LEED Silver or higher. Since state general funds may not be used to pay for certification, the University attempts to find alternate sources of funding for LEED certification of each project. Cal Poly was awarded LEED Silver certification of the Faculty Offices East building in 2008 and LEED Gold certification of the Poly Canyon Village student housing project in 2009.
Baker Science
The Warren J. Baker Center for Science and Mathematics (Baker Science) was completed in summer 2013 and opened for classes in Fall 2014. The $119 million, 189,000 square foot building replaced the north wings of the aging Science Building 52 with six levels of state-of-the-art laboratories, classrooms, faculty offices, and student spaces, in the heart of campus. Baker Science incorporates advances in sustainable design, construction methods, and building monitoring systems to provide a physical example of Cal Poly's environmental stewardship.The building achieved LEED gold certification.
Rec Center Expansion
The expanded Recreation Center opened in January 2012 and is a destination for the Cal Poly community to relax, recreate and socialize. The space was created through the shared vision, hard work and financial commitment of Cal Poly students. The building design includes an Indirect/Direct Evaporative Cooling (IDEC) system that provides virtually all of the cooling needs of the building. The building also includes a living roof, low-energy, high-efficiency HVAC and lighting systems, as well as shaded glazing that floods the interior with natural light. The Recreation Center achieved Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold Certification.
