Rasmussen University Relocates to South Topeka with New Campus

“We’re thrilled to mark the occasion by welcoming students to our incredible new space that will support their learning and growth,” said Jason Allen, campus executive director, Rasmussen University Topeka campus. “I am also excited that we have the opportunity to re-invest in the Topeka community and provide career-ready education that supports our local workforce.”

Students in the ACEN-accredited¹ Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) and CCNE-accredited² Bachelor of Science in Nursing programs will have the opportunity to learn in a new state-of-the-art Nursing Skills laboratory and Simulation Center that features simulation, control and debrief rooms, a nursing station, and medication and prep rooms.

“This facility enables our programming to remain future-focused as we prepare the next generation of nurses to meet the critical healthcare demand throughout the region,” said Jamie Magana, dean of nursing, Rasmussen University. “Our students are excited to work with the SIM technology, as faculty guide them in developing clinical decision-making skills, professional confidence and compassionate patient-focused care.”

The new campus also features large high-tech classrooms, quiet commons and study spaces, and meeting rooms. As with the previous campus, community organizations can book conference rooms and meeting spaces at no charge.

Conveniently situated at the junction of I-470, I-335 and Highway 75, the new campus in south Topeka provides easy access for students throughout the region, including commuters from Lawrence, Manhattan and Wichita, Kan.

A Grand Opening celebration is scheduled for April 19, noon-2 p.m. The event includes remarks from local officials and Rasmussen leaders, a ribbon-cutting ceremony, refreshments, and guided tours of the facility. Please RSVP to join the event, here: https://bit.ly/RasTopekaOpening.
