The new eight-story building will replace Berryhill Hall with a state-of-the-art facility that will allow the school to expand class size, facilitate interactive case-based learning, and co-locate UNC School of Medicine and UNC Health Care leadership administration. The 172,000-square-foot Medical Education Building will include a 400-seat active learning theater, two floors dedicated to clinical skills and simulated learning, and flexible lab, classroom, study and collaboration spaces.
