The serene Academic Courtyard is nestled between Powell-Focht Bioengineering Hall and the Computer Science and Engineering building. The courtyard is home to Bear, a stone sculpture by Tim Hawkinson, part of UC San Diego's Stuart Collection. The open layout of the courtyard lends itself to photoshoots, informal lunches, and outdoor meetings.
