The Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing at the University of California, Davis announced plans to begin construction on a new building scheduled to open in the fall of 2017. Betty Irene Moore Hall will be the fourth structure in the educational core of the campus, house graduate programs of the School of Nursing and support interprofessional education for other health science education on the UC Davis Sacramento campus.
Construction on the 70,000-square-foot, three-story building will officially begin in November, marked by a groundbreaking event. Once complete, Betty Irene Moore Hall will feature collaborative learning spaces, state-of-the-art simulation suites and other structural elements designed to foster engagement, active learning and interprofessional teamwork.
The Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing at UC Davis was founded in 2009 with a $100 million commitment from the Moore Foundation. The school offers four graduate-level degrees through the interprofessional Nursing Science and Health-Care Leadership Graduate Degree Programs. A fifth, which will prepare new nurses at the master’s-degree level, is expected to accept students beginning fall 2016.
