The Department of Biological Sciences at Loyola University New Orleans maintains an 828 sq. ft. greenhouse, with two growing rooms, an adjoining head house including growth chamber room, and a 400 sq. ft. outdoor deck located on the 7th floor (roof top) of Monroe Hall. The greenhouse facility serves three missions: housing a teaching collection of plants, providing growing space for student projects and materials for teaching labs, and providing growing space for faculty-student research projects.
