Realistic Training

The HPC offers simulated environments where students can get hands-on experience with scenarios that they’re likely to encounter on the job.

Fire Science

The fire science lab has an indoor bay large enough for two fire engines, as well as a dispatch room and classrooms.

Efficiency without Acrobatics

Sustainable design strategies make the facility nearly 40% more energy efficient than a standard facility of similar size. There are not a lot of design acrobatics: the design complements high-performance technologies, and it’s below a standard construction budget.

Learning by the Fen

Nursing and allied health students get a visual treat when they gather in the connecting corridor: its curving stone and glass facade preserves mature oak trees, and gives a nod to the natural fen that meanders through the center of campus.

Solar Shading

A series of vistas are presented as one moves through the facility. Each view is framed and protected from summer sun with a shifting architectural expression of brise-soleils (sun shading devices).
