IISC’s FACILITIES
<< Back to Homepage
On April 22, 2014, The University of Toledo opened the nation's most advanced health-care
training facility, the University of Toledo Interprofessional Immersive Simulation
Center (IISC). The IISC is a three-story, 65,000-square-foot building located on the
Health Science Campus. In this center, health-care professionals learn to care for
patients by practicing skills and procedures using simulation, as well as learn to
work as teams in a virtual hospital equipped with human patient simulators. In addition,
the center includes the introduction of 3D and Virtual Immersive Environments to medical
education.
All room bookings (theater or conference rooms) should be requested directly through
