GMU Unveils Virtual Reality Program for Healthcare Advancement


In December, George Mason University’s Lab for Immersive Technologies and Simulation received accreditation from the Society for Simulation in Healthcare, marking it as a groundbreaking program in healthcare education. Located in the College of Public Health, the lab is the only one accredited by the Society for Simulation of Public Health, a Minneapolis-based organization dedicated to advancing healthcare through simulations.

Dean Melissa Perry of the College of Public Health emphasized that the accreditation acknowledges the lab’s role in providing unique learning experiences for students using virtual reality (VR). In fall 2023, Perry launched a $10 million fundraising campaign to further integrate VR into healthcare education, enabling students to gain virtual reality-enhanced experiences in their classrooms.

Virtual reality allows users to interact with a computer-generated, three-dimensional environment using specialized displays and sensors. The Society for Simulation in Healthcare recognized the lab’s work in creating VR simulations for students in nursing and other healthcare fields. The lab spans 8,000 square feet and contains modular spaces that simulate practice settings, offering an immersive environment for students.
