Thomas Building Complex - Buildings 110 (left) & 110N (right) - of the University of Auckland, which houses the School of Biological Sciences (SBS) and Maurice Wilkins Centre for Molecular Biodiscovery. Note the poster on the building features an unusual University of Auckland logo.

The Faculty of Science houses several Schools, Departments and Institutes. These are based in various locations, including the City Campus, Newmarket Campus, Leigh Campus, Tāmaki Innovation Campus and the Grafton Campus.[2]

In November 2013, the Faculty of Science embarked on a NZ$200m redevelopment/expansion project on its main buildings in the City Campus.[3] Following multiple delays,[4] the state-of-the-art Science Centre was opened in July 2017.[5] The Faculty of Science administration office is based on level 6 of the new Science Centre. In 2018, design work has begun for the potential development of a new "Gateway building" on Symonds Street to replace the Thomas Building Complex for the School of Biological Sciences.[6]
