BRANDON —Rasmussen University is scheduled to open it new Tampa campus Tuesday July 6.
The private, for-profit school moved to its new 44,000-square-foot campus after its lease ran out at its previous location, according to a spokeswoman.
She says the new campus at Brandon Town Center is about five miles from the school’s previous site.
The new facility, according to a statement, includes larger classrooms, a high-tech simulation center and new health sciences and nursing labs along with expanded offices, a lounge and study spaces.
Jamie Sperling, director of the Tampa/Brandon campus, says in the statement that one reason for the move is rapid growth. “Our nursing student population alone has grown nearly 240 percent over the past five years.”
