Expanding our campus
$16.5 million in funding was approved for a 34,000-square-foot housing project to accommodate primarily upper division and graduate students and visiting professionals and staff studying or working at Hatfield. This complex was conceived as a response to the housing shortage in the Newport area, and it will ease a portion of the local housing demand.
The complex will include 72 studio-style apartments and five two-bedroom family units. The new housing will be a quick walk from the Hatfield campus and located outside of the tsunami zone.
On the Leading Edge
The Hatfield Marine Science Center is a distinguished marine laboratory located in Newport, Oregon.
Now in its 55th year of operation, Hatfield serves as Oregon State University’s coastal campus and as an oceanographic research base for six state and federal agencies. It is also a resource for K-12 educators and the public.
At Hatfield, we excel in student research opportunities and experiential instruction. We host a thriving summer internship program and offer an array of academic programs for students in community college through post-doc.
