Gov. Bill Lee will visit Cleveland State Community College on Friday to celebrate the grand opening of its new Health & Science Center.
The two-story facility is the first new construction on the Cleveland State campus in over 40 years. The building will house programs for future nurses and first responders with state-of-the-art equipment, labs and simulation areas to immerse students in a realistic environment, according to Dr. Bill Seymour, long-time CSCC president.
Lee and local media will have the opportunity to tour the Cleveland State facility following a ceremony at 10:30 a.m. on the campus, Seymour stressed.
The new Health & Science Center celebrated its groundbreaking in August 2019. Construction began on the building in a matter of months. Inspired to meet the high demands of new staff entering the medical field, construction on the building continued through the coronavirus pandemic that further heightened the need for health care workers. The 53,000 square-foot, two-story structure was designed by BarberMcMurry Architects.
Larger sections of the building are dedicated to simulation areas for emergency medical training courses, simulating an outpatient doctor’s office and a hospital.
