The Clinical Simulation Center (CSC), which is designed to have the appearance and feel of a real hospital, is a realistic, safe environment in which students may practice newly-gained skills and knowledge before entering the clinical setting where they will encounter real patients.
The Clinical Simulation Center is located on the lower level of the Health Professions Center. The entrance is on the south side of the building.
