Georgia Health Sciences University - Campus

Campus

GHSU's main campus in Augusta, Georgia encompasses more than 100 acres. The university has invested over $240 million in new construction and major renovations since 2000. A $70 million Education Commons building is under consideration by the Board of Regents. The College of Nursing has a satellite campus in Athens, where GHSU’s Medical College of Georgia operates a partnership campus with the University of Georgia. MCG also has clinical campuses in Albany and Savannah, with one planned to open in Rome soon.

In 2010, GHSU partnered up with the University of Georgia to create the GHSU/UGA Medical Partnership. The GHSU/UGA Medical Partnership combines the experience of one of the nation’s first medical schools with the resources of the Georgia’s most comprehensive research university. The result is an education that allows students to reach their full potential in a unique learning environment.

In 2011, the University of Georgia acquired the former U.S. Navy Supply Corps School on the medical corridor of Prince Avenue near downtown Athens. The 56-acre Health Sciences Campus has an extensive landscaped green space, more than 400 trees and several historic buildings. In July 2012, the GHSU/UGA Medical Partnership moved to the 58-acre UGA Health Sciences Campus near downtown Athens.
