The Life Sciences Center is located on the south side of campus, perpendicular to the Roy Nutt Mathematics, Engineering, and Computer Science Center. The building houses the biology, psychology, and neuroscience departments and contains classroom, teaching labs, research labs, and a green house.

Under President Albert Jacobs, construction on the Jacobs Life Sciences Center began in 1966. The building was part of a larger initiative under Jacobs' presidency to expand the college's infrastructure, as well as to “increase man's knowledge” of biology and psychology.

When the building was completed in 1968, Jacobs placed a sealed box time in a cornerstone. The box was not to be opened until 2073 and was filled with college memorabilia as well as a letter written by Jacobs to the future President of the College.
