In January 2014, the university announced a $60 million expansion plan which included a clinical training center, offices, classrooms, and a medical simulation building. As part of this expansion, the university began construction of the Center for Medical Education Innovation (CMEI) on the Kansas City Campus in 2018. This $33 million dollar, 56,000 sq. foot facility includes standardized patient exam rooms, a skills simulation deck similar to many hospital environments, and an advanced osteopathic skills lab. The CMEI opened in 2020.
