Bryan, Texas
Texas A&M Health Science Center is planning a new Health Science Center on 200 acres in Bryan, Texas. The first phase of the master plan for the site may include three buildings at a cost of $128 million. Fifty of the acres at the Bryan campus will accommodate public/private partnerships. Slated for completion by year-end 2010, the design includes an education building with a possible nursing or pharmacy component and a simulation center allowing medical students to practice treatment on dummies. Texas A&M has allocated $45 million in tuition revenue bonds towards the first phase of the project. Planning of the second phase of the Health Science Center, which may include a teaching hospital, will begin after ground is broken on phase one.
