Postle Hall serves as the College of Dentistry’s new facility and featured a substantial replacement of previous clinic spaces and simulation laboratory instructional facilities.
A significant renovation occurred of spaces vacated in the pre-existing Postle Hall structure to accommodate advanced technology classrooms and student learning spaces. The $95 million project began in the summer of 2018 and was completed to allow move-in in December 2020. The project added 130,000 square feet to enable the College of Dentistry to increase the number of dental students admitted each year by 10%.
