Gwyned Mercy- Nursing

Gwynedd Mercy is a Catholic university rooted in the tradition of the Sisters of Mercy. The university is a learning community that prepares students for successful careers and meaningful lives in a global society, with the following core values:

​

Integrity in Word and Deed

Respect for the Dignity of Each Person

Service to Society

Social Justice in a Diverse World

In response to integrating the University’s core values into the design process, Wulff Architects concentrated on connectivity and flexibility as the driving design factors for this space. Gwynedd Mercy University wanted to maximize the learning experience for students by creating engaging vibrant learning spaces that encourage a hands on approach.  Wulff Architects listened and addressed these needs by creating a series of connected learning environments equally suitable for close, personal classroom attention/dynamic as well as for large-scale networking events. Special care and attention were paid to integrating technology to support modern student learning for the present and the future. The aesthetics are geared to be clean and timeless in order to maximize Gwynedd Mercy University’s capital investment for the years to come. Student support and collaborative teaching spaces were also key elements of the design.
