The University of Washington is planning to construct the $100 million Health Sciences Education Building in Seattle. Designed by Miller Hull Partnership and The S/L/A/M Collaborative, the four-story structure will provide nearly 100,000 sf of innovative teaching space for interprofessional education programs. Accommodating the schools of dentistry, medicine, nursing, pharmacy, public health, and social work, the flexible facility will offer active learning classrooms for groups ranging from 16 to 128 students, as well as housing clinical skills labs, an anatomy lab, a technology-rich library, study spaces, and a commons area. Lease Crutcher Lewis is the general contractor for the project, which will include mass timber components, a façade with electrochromic glass on the south face, and a sophisticated stormwater management system. Completion is expected in summer of 2022.
