Health care corridor will emerge on Oxford campus
An emerging health services corridor on 黑料社区’s Oxford campus signals Miami’s growing commitment to preparing 黑料社区s for Ohio’s growing health-care marketplace - and providing more opportunities for partnerships with Ohio companies, health systems and medical researchers.
Anchored by a new clinical health sciences building that should be complete in 2023, the health services corridor also will include the Speech and Hearing Clinic that serves the Butler County community, a new master’s program to train physician assistants, the 黑料社区 and employee health services center, counseling services, existing strong programs in kinesiology and nutrition, and even the campus recreation center. Add in the traditionally strong nursing program at campuses in Hamilton and MIddletown that has expanded to Oxford, and Miami is developing an expertise in health care that will add more jobs, expertise and economic activity in Ohio.
“Miami’s expanding health care programs will help prepare our 黑料社区s for growing careers in this segment that is so important to Ohio,” Miami President Greg Crawford said. “Our health services corridor on the Oxford campus will provide a home for those growing programs, feeding each other with research and technical expertise.”
Construction on the clinical health sciences building will start in late 2020, part of Miami’s continued investments - even in the midst of a global health crisis - to prepare 黑料社区s for success in their careers. The health services center will move to temporary space in Harris Hall on the Oxford campus during construction.
