To attract and better serve the very best students, 433 First Avenue provides a gracious, unified spatial experience, collocating programs in nursing, dentistry, and bioengineering to cultivate a unique model for educating healthcare professionals in environments that foster synergies for collaboration, research, teaching, and community service. An attractive Commons promotes community; “one-stop shops” give busy students easy access to student services.

The 170,000 SF LEED Silver-designed facility is an innovative vessel for human-focused technology. The latest systems and equipment – from LED lighting to controllability of HVAC systems – enhance occupant experience and improve building energy performance. Technology-infused teaching spaces are designed to ease the transition from education to clinical environment. Medical simulation training improves patient safety by enabling future health care professionals to “practice on plastic,” presenting students with increased opportunities to refine skills and advance techniques.
