The Nursing +Allied Health Building for Harford Community College is a 3-story, 50,000 sf new construction project comprised of laboratories, classrooms, offices and a variety of informal collaborative student learning spaces within a central atrium. The building will house a two-year nursing program as well as credit and non-credit Allied Health programs. Laboratories are equipped with simulation mannequins in hospital beds, control rooms, and observation/debrief rooms. Computers, monitors and cameras are provided at the patient’s bedside for students to learn, practice and be evaluated independently of the instructor. Active learning classrooms empower students to construct their own learning in collaborative creative problem solving exercises. Informal student and group study spaces are also provided throughout the central atrium. Glass-enclosed group study rooms, technology enhanced booths, stadium seating facing the quadrangle and nexus spaces with moveable soft furniture invite students to customize their learning environment outside of class.
The building is sited at the intersection of the main entry road to campus and the quadrangle, and in fact is the first building that creates the quadrangle. Sustainable landscaping in the bio-swale and a rain garden are the focus of continuous stone benches that radiate from the building and terrace the hill. Students gather here for structured classes or reflective learning. Hord Coplan Macht designed a pedestrian and vehicular movement system master plan for the campus, which produced public and student entry plazas as well as paths connecting parking, main campus and the new quadrangle. A proposed loop road will re-route traffic to mitigate congestion, provide entry and exit alternatives and separate pedestrian from vehicles in the campus center.
