Proposed Medical School Facilities

For the proposed medical school, a new $60-plus-million facility will be built on the campus of Cape Fear Valley Medical Center in Fayetteville as an off-campus instructional site for Methodist University. It will include a virtual anatomy laboratory, a fully equipped standardized patient laboratory, a state-of-the-art information commons area, a 144-seat classroom, and multiple learning center classrooms. The classrooms will be used to review both clinical presentations and patient cases. Further specifications of the facility are still being planned, but Methodist University and Cape Fear Valley are committed to building a state-of-the-art facility with cutting-edge technologies.

Existing Health Sciences Facilities

Methodist University has a track record of state-of-the-art facilities for medical education, including an on-campus Human Anatomy Lab for Physician Assistant and Physical Therapy students and the McLean Health Sciences Building, which includes several laboratories that serve the Physical and Occupational Therapy programs, such as the Motion Analysis Lab and the Activities of Daily Living Lab. The Chaffin Building houses a General Simulation Hospital to provide an on-campus lab environment for Nursing students.
