UNMC students are invited to join the med center community at the groundbreaking ceremony today (Nov. 4) for a new student housing facility on UNMC\u2019s Omaha campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 3 p.m. ceremony will be located at the southeast corner of 39th Street and Dewey Avenue, just east of the Harold M. and Beverly\u00a0Maurer\u00a0Center\u00a0for Public Health. On-campus attendees are urged to walk to the event as parking is extremely limited. The groundbreaking ceremony also will be available via Facebook Live on the UNMC account<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction work already has begun on the $66 million, 200,000-plus-square-foot residence hall that will accommodate approximately 300 UNMC students. Occupancy of the six-story facility is expected in August 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction of an on-campus residential facility addresses student housing concerns outlined in a 2022 survey, said UNMC Interim Chancellor Dele Davies, MD.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The residential facility will include studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units, a \u2018grab-and-go\u2019 food option with indoor and outdoor seating, as well as first floor meeting and study spaces open to all UNMC students, including non-tenants.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
