This is a project that will provide a home away from home for all Education City students. It should provide a vibrant environment promoting social and cultural interaction. This multi-functional building will offer diverse services to students in areas such as Student Health Care, Student Counseling Services, Financial Aid and Housing, as well as Recreational Spaces and ambitious integral complementary programs such as Culture and Sports. Projected to support more than 10,000 with 50% students targeted to be in place within the next 4 to 5 years. The main purpose of this urban node is to provide a familiar, relaxing and playful environment where the students enclosed under this university life and international oriented profile will be working together with people from all over the world under this unity sense of life.
