Part of a multi-phase redevelopment of the 40-year-old NUS campus, the new building for the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine will incorporate the School of Medicine, School of Nursing and Medical Library into one unit to serve the university’s undergraduates, graduates and researchers. The school is designed as a tall, distinctive mass organized horizontally and vertically into blocks, depending upon function. The educational volumes and Virtual Hospital with state-of-the-art Simulation Learning Centers is on the lower portions while the research functions are located in the upper tower.

The Centre for Healthcare Simulation (CHS) provides students a safe and realistic environment to sharpen their clinical skills. Students work in teams and learn how to handle intense clinical and medical situations under the tutelage of experienced clinical faculty. The Centre is equipped with Multi-Station Examination rooms to enable team collaboration and individual work. *Project completed by Steven Gifford prior to joining Perkins Eastman.
