The structure of the new Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine building at the University of Utah was completed during a topping off ceremony for the teaching, training and research facility.
The 211,457-square-foot building includes a high-tech anatomy lab, tailored classrooms, an advanced simulation center, collaborative spaces and conference auditoriums will serve the 500-plus students in the university’s prestigious medical program.
Funds from a landmark $110 million gift from the George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Foundation and the Nora Eccles Treadwell Foundation provide support for medical education programs and cardiovascular research.
The eight-story facility is nestled on the hillside in the heart of the University of Utah Health campus and will replace the old School of Medicine facility that was built in the 1960’s.
Work on the project began with the groundbreaking in October 2022, and the installment of the first structural steel started in February.
The design partners on this project are VCBO Architecture and Yazdani Studio.
