CARSON, CA - A groundbreaking ceremony was held at CSU Dominguez Hills in Carson, CA to celebrate four capital projects to be built on the campus including the New Orthotics & Prosthetics Education Center designed by AC Martin.

The new center will bring the Orthotics & Prosthetics department back to the CSU Dominguez Hills campus as it is currently operating off-campus in Los Alamitos, 16 miles from the campus. The new center will house a megatronics lab, student lab, a maker space, clinical space, and shared resources for storage and deliverables. 

Bringing the O+P program back to the main campus provides many advantages, including closer connection to the College of Health and Human Development, College of Continuing and Professional Education, and University services and resources.

The new facility will be a primary center for prosthetics repair and service during the 2028 Olympics and Paralympics games taking place in Los Angeles.
