Appalachian State University Builds College of Health Sciences

Published 8/9/2016

Appalachian State University is building a $79 million facility for the Beaver College of Health Sciences in Boone, N.C. Designed by LS3P, the 203,000-sf project will consolidate teaching and research space currently dispersed in seven buildings across campus, and will accommodate programs such as nursing, nutrition, exercise science, social work, and health care management. The facility will provide both traditional and problem-based learning classrooms as well as a nursing simulation center, an interprofessional health clinic, and space for the physician assistant program. The project will include labs for rehabilitative science, exercise and human performance, food science, and anatomy and physiology. Rodgers Builders, the construction manager at risk, broke ground on the project in June of 2016. Occupancy is expected in summer of 2018.
