Project Description

The new Health Sciences Innovation Building (HSIB) is an interprofessional, multidisciplinary medical and health education training, research and simulated practice facility. Supporting the Colleges of Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Public Health, as well as clinical skills and the Arizona Simulation Technology and Education Center (ASTEC), HSIB enables integrated education among teams of health professionals, students and faculty. The wide variety of program spaces distributed throughout the building vary in scale and are linked by stairs to promote health, activity and interaction. The program includes a clinical skills and simulation center, classrooms and flexible team learning areas, research labs, and social and collaboration spaces. It is LEED Gold certified.
