MCN is honored to open the new Nursing Simulation Center on our Normal campus. This $18 million expansion adds 16,000 square feet to the existing 10,000 square feet space. The center includes virtual reality, advanced simulation technology, areas for interdisciplinary collaboration, student support, research capabilities, and enhanced clinical educational settings. This new building will provide a high-quality educational experience, promoting collaboration, innovation, and belonging. University reserves, federal appropriations, and private donors made the building's funding possible.
