Academic facilities include a state-of-the-art conference suite,130 seat lecture theatre and a 24 hour learning resource centre. The adjacent pathology building, also delivered by Avanti, provides for cellular and neuro-pathology activities, including a cytology training suite, electron microscope and containment labs.
