This project marks a significant milestone for the University of South Florida and the Tampa Bay community, with the increasing demand for skilled health care workers. The new facility will feature a simulation center funded by Tampa General Hospital. It also includes clinical spaces, an auditorium, and flexible learning labs to foster learning and research. Additionally, the building will incorporate sustainable practices.
Beck’s role as designer and builder allows for a seamless integration of innovative design and construction techniques.
“Our design and construction team has worked closely with USF to ensure the new facility meets the needs of students, faculty, and the health care community. The design includes flexible learning environments that can adapt to evolving educational methods and technologies,” said Nick Lyons, Beck’s Project Designer.
This expansion is not just about a new building; it signifies a substantial investment in the future of health care education. USF is providing students with access to the latest technology and learning environments.

Thanks to support from the Florida legislature, $33 million was allocated in the fiscal year 2023 budget to enhance infrastructure at the USF Health College of Nursing.
The project will expand the College of Nursing’s capacity, enabling a 500-student increase in undergraduate nursing enrollment by 2028. By fostering partnerships with local and regional health care institutions like Tampa General Hospital, the college is offering practice-based training and facilitating pathways to employment for its graduates, thereby addressing the demand for BSN-prepared nurses in Florida.
