Why Birmingham and why now?
The University’s Medical School, historically one of the UK’s most highly regarded, needed new, modern teaching and learning facilities to ensure it could continue to attract and train the best possible students. This is a vital contribution to the progression of medical care and research in the UK and globally.
What is the need?
In 2003 the Medical School embarked on an ambitious project to fund and build a new Centre for Medical Education including a state-of-the-art lecture theatre, student social and learning spaces and seminar rooms. Thanks to the support of trusts, including primarily the Wolfson Foundation, and hundreds of medical alumni, the £2.5 million needed was raised.
