The University of California at Berkeley is planning a $2 billion development for an aerospace education and research complex at a NASA campus in Silicon Valley.

The Berkeley Space Center at NASA Ames Research Park will include offices, labs, classrooms, residences and retail space at the nearly 35-acre (14-hectare) site within the existing National Aeronautics and Space Administration research campus. Future phases of the project are expected to include short-term-stay facilities as well as student and faculty housing, according to a statement Monday.
