The Basic Science campus is located on 10 acres of land generously provided by the Government of St. Christopher-Nevis. The campus is situated on the eastern side of Nevis, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, three miles from Newcastle airport and one mile from Nisbet Plantation Beach. Currently, the MUA campus consists of an administration building, classroom buildings, student cafeteria, a multipurpose building with gross anatomy, microbiology, histology and pathology laboratories, as well as a medical reference library with free wireless internet access. The teaching microbiology lab includes a wet lab and facilities for incubating and evaluating microbiological cultures.

A new, "state of the art," 38,500 square foot building will house additional classrooms, administrative and faculty offices, laboratories, meeting rooms, a clinic, and a general function room.

All classrooms are air-conditioned and contain a wide variety of teaching resources such as classroom monitors, slide and overhead projectors, microscopes with video capability, LCD projectors, and computers. The gross anatomy laboratory utilizes human cadavers that have been especially prepared for medical dissection. The histology and pathology laboratories provide each student with a medical quality binocular microscope and prepared slides. Faculty has access to dual-binocular and trinocular microscopes to facilitate student learning.

Recreational facilities on campus include a swimming pool, two tennis courts, basketball court, volleyball court, and a children's play area.
