MSU College of Human Medicine Research Center

400 Monroe Ave NW
Grand Rapids, MI 49503

Join BOMA West Michigan for networking, lunch (Atwater Brewery) and a tour of the new MSU College of Human Medicine Research Center located in downtown Grand Rapids. Sitting on top of the former Grand Rapids Press location, ground was broken for this beautiful new site on June 18, 2015 following a $3 million dollar building demolition by Pitsch.


When completed, this $88.1 million site will boast:

  • Prime location, anchoring West Michigan’s Medical Mile
  • The support of 260 members of Michigan State University College of Human Medicine’s scientific research teams (including as many as 44 principal investigators and their labs)
  • Areas for the scientific study of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, pediatric neurology, autism, inflammation, transplantation, cancer, genetics and women’s health/reproductive medicine
  • 162,800-square-foot building, 6 stories high, with a 7th floor “penthouse” (containing the mechanical components) 
  • A roofed corridor for service equipment
  • An excellent example of a joint venture project involving: Clark Construction Company (Lansing), Rockford Construction (Grand Rapids), SmithGroupJJR (Detroit) and Ellenzweig (Cambridge, Mass)

Listen as representatives of MSU share insider information regarding:

  • The development process and redesign
  • Future of the property
  • Technology solutions located inside
  • Community involvement/connectivity

You won't want to miss your opportunity to tour this outstanding facility before the doors opens to the public!

MSU College of Human Medicine

Founded in 1964, Michigan State University College of Human Medicine is nationally recognized as one of the nation's pioneers of community-based medical education.

Among the 141 medical schools in the country, MSU College of Human Medicine ranks sixth when it comes to “social mission” for producing doctors who are minorities, practice primary care and work in under-served areas, according to a 2010 study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine.

The college’s footprint spans the state of Michigan. Clinical practice, research and undergraduate and graduate medical education takes place across seven campuses through affiliations with local hospitals, physicians, and other health care providers. These community campuses are located in Flint, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Midland Regional, Southeast Michigan, Traverse City and the Upper Peninsula Region.

Three pillar communities provide the college’s foundation for research and clinical services. Grand Rapids, the college’s headquarters, is home to centers for excellence in women’s health research and Parkinson’s disease research. Lansing is the central location for clinical services through the university’s health team and Flint offers programs and research in public health.


The headquarters for MSU College of Human Medicine is the Secchia Center medical education building at 15 Michigan Street NE, Grand Rapids. The campaign for the privately-funded, $90 million building was complete at the time of its grand opening, Sept. 10, 2010. The 180,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art medical education building is seven stories high, atop a five-story parking structure. In 2011, the building was awarded Gold LEED® certification.


Beginning in 2007, the college underwent one of the largest MD medical school expansions in the nation and doubled the size of its enrollment by fall 2013, educating approximately 800 future physicians.


First and second-year medical students receive their pre-clinical education in either East Lansing on the campus of Michigan State University, or at the Secchia Center, in Grand Rapids. Each location has 200 pre-clinical students. Third- and fourth-year students receive their clinical education at any of 9 primary teaching hospitals and 47 community hospitals in the college’s seven community campuses throughout the state.
