Once completed, the building will combine WSU’s College of Health Professions and Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic, WSU Tech’s health care program, and Wichita campuses of KU School of Medicine and KU School of Pharmacy in one facility.

The Wichita Biomedical Campus is a partnership between Wichita State University and the University of Kansas.
