Calhoun Field Laboratory: approximately 15 acres of farmland located on the Clemson University Campus, dedicated to the creation of an experiential learning environment to develop and demonstrate farming systems and strategies that are ecologically, economically and socially sustainable, and that will strengthen local food systems.
Clemson University Arthropod Collection and Museum: educational displays are used to enhance University courses and are viewed by up to 10,000 persons from outside the University each year, either as visitors to the Collection or as participants in demonstrations at off-campus venues. Voucher and study specimens document the species used in University research. The Collection's identified specimens serve as reference material for identification of the nearly 1,000 samples submitted each year by people from throughout South Carolina.
Multi-user Analytical Laboratory: located in Long Hall, maintains equipment for quantification of pesticide residues, secondary metabolites and hormones as they relate to plant physiology research.
Musser Farm: a 240 acre fruit tree research farm with an excellent collection of commercial peach cultivars and related wild Prunus species, as well as nectarine, almond, apricot, plum, cherry and various interspecific hybrids, is located in Oconee County close to the Clemson University campus.
Simpson Farm: located seven miles from campus in Anderson County, is dedicated to crop and livestock research.
Coastal Research & Education Center: located in Charleston, SC, its primary mission is to develop efficient and economical systems for vegetable production in South Carolina. A primary goal is to become a center of excellence for vegetable research. The team that focuses its efforts on accomplishing this goal consists of a horticulturist, a postharvest physiologist, a plant pathologist, two entomologists and an extension horticulturist.
Edisto Research & Education Center: located near Blackville, SC, is dedicated to find better ways to grow and harvest crops, raise beef cattle and conserve natural resources.
Pee Dee Research & Education Center: located near Florence, SC, is dedicated to conducting applied research that focuses on the agricultural cropping systems of the region which include tobacco, cotton, peanuts, soybeans, wheat, corn, flax, lawn and golf course turf, and conservation tillage along with environmental, wildlife, and ecological studies.
Archbold Tropical Research and Education Consortium: a facility where scientist and educators would be able to study tropical ecosystems, natural resources, aquaculture, and community forestry in an uninterrupted serene environment.
Belle W Baruch Institute of Coastal Ecology and Forest Science: a facility where scientist and educators focus on the ecology and management of the natural resources of the coastal region of South Carolina.
South Carolina Botanical Garden: (teaching and research facility) provides experience and resources for landscape design and implementation, ornamental germplasm evaluation, organic production and heirloom plant conservation.
Clemson University Genomics Institute (CUGI): a state-of-the-art research and training facility focusing on structural and functional genomics of agricultural and horticultural crops and their pests.
Scanning Electron Microscopy Facility: located in Jordan Hall provides access to transmission and scanning electron microscopes. A confocal microscope is also located in Jordan Hall. (Usage fee is $25 per hour)
