Beginning in 2003 with one room, the center has grown to have facilities in four states. Each center is complete with four simulation rooms, over eleven multipurpose rooms, and state-of-the-art technology. The Center strives to provide a safe, physician-driven, learning environment for our students while promoting humanism and professionalism in medicine, clinical procedural competencies, and critical decision-making.
With our doors always open, the center welcomes outside institutions and organizations seeking a central location to educate and train their students and/or employees. Excelling in standardized patient, manikin, and cadaver-based simulations, we work closely with our partners to ensure their program needs and curriculum are met to their standards.
We thank you for your interest in The Simulation and Educational Technology Center. Please continue to look around our site to learn more about our facility and know that our staff are committed to Saving Lives and Making Great Clinicians!
