Our UNSW Biomedical Sciences Centre project has reached its full height. To celebrate, the Wagga Wagga community came together yesterday for a topping-out ceremony. When complete, the region’s new Biomedical Sciences Centre will ensure more medical students are trained in rural and regional Australia.

Students, teachers, government, and @UNSW representatives came to the ceremony to witness the progress of the new four-storey Centre. It will feature flexible tutorial rooms and function space, a lecture theatre, dry labs, research facilities, tutorial rooms, scenario rooms, academic staff offices and on-site parking.

Federal Member for Riverina @Michael McCormack said he was delighted to see the building taking shape. “It is fantastic to see this vision becoming a reality which will help address GP and medical specialists in regional, rural and remote areas.”

The federal government has committed $21 million to the Centre, which is part of a $95.4 million investment in the Murray-Darling Medical Schools Network (MDMSN).

We are proud of our part in delivering the Wagga Wagga Biomedical Sciences Centre, a state-of-the-art purpose-built facility with opportunities for specialised postgraduate training.
