The Macarthur Clinical School has been nominated for the Boomtown! Project of the Year, a new award established by the Western Sydney Leadership Dialogue

The Macarthur Clinical School has been nominated for the Boomtown! Project of the Year, a new award established by the Western Sydney Leadership Dialogue to acknowledge completed (or near completed) projects over the past 12 months that have, or will, significantly contribute to the sustainable growth of Greater Western Sydney. The award aims to celebrate achievement in innovation and leadership in project design and delivery by the public and private sector, and recognises major projects that have positively impacted on community, social, and economic outcomes.

The $21m, four-storey Macarthur Clinical School at Campbelltown Hospital was opened in early 2017, providing advanced training to medical students and researchers. Jointly funded by the NSW Government and Western Sydney University, it is one of the key training sites for Western Sydney University’s School of Medicine, where hands-on clinical experience is embedded in the students' training from their very first year. With state-of-the-art training equipment, students are mentored by senior specialists and other health professionals from the nearby hospital.

Other finalists for 2017 are M4 road widening for WestConnex (Sydney Motorway Corporation/RMS); Western Sydney University Parramatta CBD Campus (WSU); Transport Technology Centre at TAFE Wetherill Park (TAFE NSW); Fire and Rescue Academy at Erskine Park (FRNSW); Inglis Riverside Stables (Inglis/Accor Hotels). The winner will be announced at the Boomtown! Infrastructure Summit on 22 November.
