Academic Rotunda
Centerbrook, CT – A new kind of learning space designed by Centerbrook Architects & Planners has opened at UConn Health.
The space is a 3,800sf Academic Rotunda — in plan, a circle with a 75-foot diameter — that introduces interactive, team-based learning to medical education for UConn Health’s School of Medicine and School of Dental Medicine in Farmington.
The rotunda accommodates up to 240 students at a time. Centerbrook is working with construction manager Skanska.
Implementation of Centerbrook’s 2011 Master Plan for the UConn Health academic building continues with renovation of 45,000sf of the existing facility, to be complete in January 2017.
