Health Sciences Resource Center

The primary role of the Health Sciences Resource Center is to assist in the advancement and growth of academic health programs in response to community need for specialized practitioners in the health sciences. 

The Health Sciences Resource Center joined the Center for Academic Resource Development (CARD) in fall 2000 to assist in grant funding opportunities, secure donations and implement new instructional projects for the health sciences division.

The Health Sciences Resource Center has secured relationships and partnered with the Maryland Association for Community Colleges, the Association of American Colleges and Universities, the Prince George's County Health Department and the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene to assist in funding and support for advanced instructional technology, development of a state-of-the-art interdisciplinary simulation laboratory, HIV/AIDS education and Tobacco Prevention and Control.

Interdisciplinary Simulation Laboratory Project.  The development and progression of the Simulation Laboratory has been guided through the Health Sciences Resource Center.  The simulation lab is almost completed with digital recording features, a control room, 3 simulation manikins and monitoring systems.  The technology housed in the lab was completely funded through grants from the MSDE Perkins Fund and the Maryland Association of Community Colleges.
