New Digs On The Way

Trine University buys an additional 43 acres of land from Parkview Health in Fort Wayne. The new property is adjacent to a 13-acre parcel Trine purchased from Parkview in February, where the university is currently constructing its new Dr. Earl D. and Melanie Brooks College of Health Professions facility, which remains on pace to open in summer 2024. The new parcel is north of the existing property and includes additional frontage on Union Chapel Road. The new 110,000-square-foot Brooks College of Health Professions facility, developed in close partnership with Parkview Health, will employ 100 faculty and staff and serve nearly 700 students. The new space will allow the Brooks College of Health Professions to add new programs, such as occupational therapy, medical science and emergency medical sciences, among others.
