About the program

Overview

Mission statement

The mission of the Physician Assistant Programs is to educate capable students from diverse backgrounds to meet the challenges of practicing medicine in collaboration with physicians and other members of the health care team. The curricula are formulated to sensitize the student to diverse populations and the complexities of healthcare delivery that influence patients and their families. Students engage in community service to foster effective communication, compassion, and dedication. We encourage research and create life-long learners trained to utilize evidence to deliver safe, effective patient-centered care to patients and their communities.

Program features

Successful PANCE pass rates, World-class faculty devoted to instruction in the clinical disciplines. Robustly detailed curriculum and motivated instructors who will ensure students gain not merely knowledge but, the ability to apply this information using evidence-based medicine and compassion to treat each patient.

Clinical rotations

Beginning in the fourth semester, students complete nine supervised clinical practice experiences over approximately 12 months, including seven required rotations (Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, Surgery, OB/GYN/Women's Health, Emergency Medicine, Behavioral Health) and two electives.
