Study In US: Arizona State University Health Headquarters Location Announced

Study Abroad: Arizona State University President Michael Crow has announced that the university's headquarters will be in downtown Phoenix.

Arizona State University's new health headquarters will be the hub of the ASU's ongoing efforts to improve the health outcomes of the valley residents. President Michael Crow has announced the location of the headquarters, which will be in downtown Phoenix bounded by Pierce Streets and Fillmore. 

While commenting on this, Crow said, “We’re not just building a medical school. We’re not just building a public health school. We’re not just doing a few new things under some label. We’re trying to take the assets of the most innovative university that the United States has had and apply it to the new class of problems. And right here on this gravel pile will be the headquarters of all of that.”

The headquarters are expected to open by the fall 2028 semester.

ABOR Chair Cecilia Mata said, “Today’s announcement is about impacting lives and making a real difference in our communities. This state-of-the-art facility will integrate advanced analytical tools, data science and innovative care practices to improve health outcomes for our loved ones. ASU Health graduates will be the future doctors, nurses, technologists and scientists who keep our communities healthy and ensure quality care for every Arizonan.”

“The future of health care changes today with ASU Health on the city’s 30-acre Phoenix Bioscience Core, delivering next-generation research, better patient outcomes, strong talent and a promise for life-altering medical breakthroughs,” Gallego said.

“ASU Health is integral to solving for workforce shortages and improving the quality of health for our residents. Within 10 years, results will create nearly 200,000 jobs and add $19 billion to the state's GDP. I applaud ASU President Dr. Crow for selecting the Phoenix Bioscience Core to build the most advanced medical technology school in America," added Gallego.
