The new Behling Simulation Center is among the renovations in
Farber Hall that meet immediate and pressing needs for high
quality research space for the health sciences.
Major renovations to Farber Hall have been made to provide badly
needed new research space for the School of Medicine and Biomedical
Sciences and others. The approximately $10.2 million project has
established the Behling Simulation Center on the fourth floor, as
well as research laboratories on the third floor. Work also
included new heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical and
communications infrastructure, as well as interior architecture and
finishes. A Grand Opening ceremony was held in September 2011. The
renovations are critical to the ability of the health sciences
schools to continue recruiting high-quality faculty, even as plans
are developed for moving the health sciences to our Downtown
campus. See more
