Congratulations to Lorraine Hawick on the publication of her paper in Medical Education.
This was an exploratory case study exploring the impact of a new medical school building on student experiences.
Findings revealed that there were specific visions and intentions for the place (the location) and space (the facilities) of the new medical school building (e.g. it was positioned to facilitate flow between educational and clinical settings).
However, unintentional consequences were that students felt disconnected from the wider university, trapped on the health care campus, and under pressure to behave not like students but in a manner they believed to be expected by clinical staff and patients.
