The new health science building is a beacon for education and research for two colleges booming with growth. 

The University of New Mexico College of Nursing and Public Health Excellence Building is a simple yet dynamic facility that puts students at the heart of its new interdisciplinary educational, community and student support spaces. The College of Nursing's research program is enhanced through state-of-the-art research facilities. A new, flexible open bench lab environment allows for growth and is supported by adjacent specialty labs. Dry labs have a robust technology backbone to support computational research. Clinical research exam rooms are placed within the secured research suite without sacrificing easy wayfinding and check-in for patients.
