PLANS to build a three-storey research building in Triumph Road, Lenton, will be decided by councillors next week.
The University of Nottingham building would be leased to Romax, an aeronautical research company, which would offer post-graduate students the chance to get involved in research projects.
The building would feature open-plan offices and meeting rooms, a training suite, a laboratory and a relaxation area.
Employment and training opportunities would be created during the building's construction.
Council officers have recommended that planning permission is granted.
Councillors on the development control committee will make a decision at their next meeting, on Wednesday, November 21.
