The Center for Science and Mathematics consists of a five level central structure devoted to offices and student spaces with wings on either side that house classrooms and laboratories. The central entrance on Level Two connects to Centennial Park on the south side and to a major pedestrian artery on the north. These entrances access offices and conference rooms for Chemistry and Biochemistry, Physics, and Earth and Soil Science.

Stacked above in Levels Three through Six are faculty offices and generous student study spaces. In addition to this main entrance, there are two additional entrances, Level One on the west end for the University classrooms and Level Three on the east end. The Center replaces the north wings of the current science building affectionately known as the Spider Building and is at the center of the Cal Poly campus.
