A Medical Education for the Future, Built on Tradition

Bridging our clinics and classrooms, the school’s state-of-the-art Simulation Center lets you gain valuable experience through a variety of healthcare scenarios. In this 8,800-square-foot immersive learning environment, you will practice and learn multiple skills, such as:

• Patient interviewing and advanced communication skills with actors trained as standardized patients 
• Physical examination with actors trained as standardized patients and anatomical models
• Documentation, note-taking, and ordering labs and imaging studies in the electronic medical record
• Management of urgent medical situations with life-like mannequins 
• Clinical procedures with part-task trainers that model portions of the body 
• Communication skills required to practice in interprofessional teams

Our Simulation Center provides a safe learning environment as you practice new skills and gain confidence in your ability to handle situations with real patients in our clinics and hospitals.

The school's Anatomy Resource Center (ARC) gives our students new and exciting ways to learn about the human body. In this innovative facility, you'll master the anatomical sciences through a combination of traditional case-based instruction as well as virtual learning. 

The diverse instructional methods used in the ARC include:

• Presentations that integrate surface, regional, and cross-sectional anatomy with histology and radiology
• Human cadavers preserved by plastination
• Advanced augmented platforms and virtual microscopy interfaces
• Diagnostic imaging tools, such as portable ultrasound units

By merging the best of conventional and future-facing approaches to anatomical study, the ARC provides a new standard for medical education, giving students access to both hands-on lab work and simulated experiences.
