The USF Health Taneja College of Pharmacy is on target to open its state-of-the-art 120-person classroom, designed to transform pharmaceutical education. This innovative space features a modular design and holographic technology to provide a forward-thinking immersive 21st century learning environment.
Pioneering Education with Hologram Technology
At the heart of this new classroom is a sophisticated hologram unit, setting a new standard for interactive and immersive learning. This technology allows for lifelike 3D visualizations of complex pharmaceutical processes, patient scenarios, and drug interactions, bringing textbook concepts to life. Students can engage with dynamic, holographic models, enhancing their understanding and retention of advanced coursework.
“The integration of hologram technology represents a major leap forward in how we
educate future pharmacists. It provides our students with an unparalleled opportunity
to visualize and interact with the material in ways that were previously unimaginable,”
said Kevin Sneed, PharmD, dean of the Taneja College of Pharmacy and senior associate
vice president of USF Health.
A Flexible and Future-Ready Learning Environment
The Modular design of the classroom offers unmatched flexibility, allowing for seamless reconfiguration to accommodate a variety of teaching styles and activities. This adaptability ensures that the space can easily transition from traditional lectures to group discussions, workshops, and interactive sessions, creating a more engaging collaborative learning experience for students.
A Commitment to Innovative Education
Giving students access to a robust curriculum and world-class faculty ensures that they will receive a comprehensive and future-focused education. The college continues to provide its students with the tools and experiences necessary to excel in an ever-evolving field.
“It’s an exciting time to be part of the Taneja College of Pharmacy and this classroom is built for the future but more importantly built for our students,” Dr. Sneed said.
