The University of Texas at Arlington School of Social Work and College of Nursing & Health Innovation Smart Hospital Funded with $ 60M from the Permanent University Fund

The School of Social Work/CONHI Smart Hospital is a 150,000-square-foot state- of-the-art learning space enriched with the latest technology, including a Smart Hospital that’s home to dozens of medical robots capable of simulating various medical conditions. It also includes a virtual reality (VR) lab with VR headsets, a simulation theater, which can be reconfigured to resemble a courtroom, a hospital room or whatever learning need a class has, and a counseling center that gives social work students the chance to hone their craft with real clients. The center features a separate entrance for those who may be uneasy about reaching out and is also open to students, faculty and staff.
