Jurica Suchy Nature Museum

The Jurica-Suchy Nature Museum at Benedictine University is a natural history museum located on the 2nd floor of the Birck Hall of Science. The museum was founded in 1971, but the collection began as a hands-on teaching collection in the 1920's. Much of the collection is over 150 years old. 
Our mission: The Jurica-Suchy Nature Museum strives to provide an educational environment in the Benedictine tradition that inspires all people to seek a deeper understanding and appreciation of the world’s natural and cultural diversity through engaging exhibits, educational programs, and the preservation of its collections.
