Education Snapshots features RDG’s design for the Creighton University Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust Health Sciences Building.

Creighton University engaged RDG Planning & Design to set the strategic vision and subsequent design for the Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust Health Sciences Building in Phoenix.

The campus, which is located along Central Avenue in Midtown Phoenix, marks a significant expansion of the University’s presence in Arizona and reflects its commitment to meeting the growing need for healthcare professionals across the country. The seven-level Health Sciences Campus will enroll nearly 900 students, including future physicians, nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists, pharmacists and physician assistants by 2025.

RDG’s design for the campus takes inspiration from Creighton’s education ethos, “Cura Personalis” (care for the whole person), to create spaces that emphasize occupants’ physical, mental, social and emotional well-being.
