UAMS Medical Center
Residence Hall
The new 92,000-square-foot UAMS Residence opened in August 2006 with up-to-date accommodations to meet the changing needs of the students and guests. The previous student dormitory was more than 45 years old and its heating and cooling systems were inadequate. Also, the site was needed for the hospital expansion.
The multi-story residence hall is directly north of the Arkansas State Hospital on Markham Street. The residence hall, offering housing for UAMS students and medical residents, include 177 units, with a mix of traditional dormitory-style rooms with semi-private baths, one-bedroom apartments and efficiency apartments. The rooms feature computer network access and individual heating/cooling units, while the apartments include washers and dryers.
