Overview
Magnolia Park consists of a 30.1 km2 facility complex located on the eastern periphery of Nishiyama in west-central Stelossia, halfway between Korolyeviya and the region border with Sevaria. It was established in February 1988 by Nishiyama State University, University of Stelossia at Sugikawa, and Yamaru University under the West Stelossia Inter-University Research Council with regional and federal assistance as a cooperative project with the goals of consolidating research facilities, improving the efficiency of inter-university research work, and attracting companies to the site in order to better retain university graduates in the region. It possesses a large range of research and staff support facilities to support research in natural sciences, engineering, advanced technology, and biomedicine.
The park is operated by the West Stelossia Inter-University Research Council, a non-profit cooperative jointly operated by its three parent universities. It is funded by a combination of charitable donations, state funding, and budgetary contributions provided by the academic departments that use the site.
