Student learning centre opens in JBM Building

Vancouver, BC – Do you remember the operatories in the former clinic located in the John B. Macdonald Building?

With the recent installation of 80 computer stations, a different kind of learning activity is happening in these old cubicles.

Re-engineering the old clinic in the JBM Building is a technically complicated and expensive affair.

Since redevelopment of the entire space is still a long way off, the space has been refitted to provide an immediate solution to the shortage of student learning and study space.

As well as providing a student workspace for computer-based learning (and exams), the space—now called the Student Learning Centre—is ideal for simulation exercises that do not require clinical equipment.

Students now have a much-needed after-hours study space in their home building.
