COSI, Columbus, Ohio`s dynamic Center of Science and Industry, inspires the scientists, dreamers, and innovators of tomorrow. Opened in 1964 at Memorial Hall in downtown Columbus, COSI moved in 1999 to a new 320,000-square-foot home designed by internationally-renowned architect Arata Isozaki, creating one of the largest modern-built science centers in the United States. COSI continues to represent a significant investment in the economic development and community revitalization of downtown Columbus.
As a "center of science," (download the PDF to learn more) rather than a standalone science center, COSI has established embedded partnerships that enrich our guests` experiences, including WOSU@COSI, the only working television station in a science center; the Ohio State University (OSU) Labs in Life, working research laboratories created through a partnership with The Ohio State University and staffed by OSU researchers; Battelle`s STEM Innovation Network, in partnership with one of the world`s leading research institutions; the Columbus Historical Society; and the STEM-based Metro High School, among others.
In 2008, COSI was named America`s #1 science center for families by Parent Magazine. Since 1964, COSI has engaged with over 30 million people from all 50 states and around the world, both on-site and through its award-winning outreach programs.
