History

The establishment of the center was the result of a generous donation from The Riley Foundation. In 2023, a $5 million award was given for the renovation and equipping of the Rosenbaum and Deen buildings for simulation learning. The center is set to open Fall 2024.

Our center soon will include a third-floor interdisciplinary lab (7,715 square feet). The center will include six Clinical Exam Rooms, six Medical Surgical Rooms, three control rooms, one proctor station, two nurses stations, four pre/debriefing rooms, and a conference room.
