About the program
Overview
Mission statement
The mission of the Physician Assistant program at The University of Findlay is to provide our students with the medical knowledge, technical skills, and experience in a variety of didactic and clinical settings necessary for them to become ethical, competent, and compassionate health care providers as part of the health care team. This mission complements the University of Findlay's mission which is to equip our students for meaningful lives and productive careers.
Program features
Very small class sizes with low student to faculty ratios, early clinical experiences before the clinical year starts, instruction in sonography and addictions medicine
Clinical rotations
Students complete eight supervised clinical practice experiences (SCPEs): seven required core six-week rotations and one six-week elective. Core SCPEs include Family Practice, General Internal Medicine, General Pediatrics, Women’s Health, General Surgery, Emergency Medicine, and Psychiatry/Mental Health. Rotations are six weeks (five weeks and two days in clinic, with the last three days on campus unless noted), and students typically work at least 40 hours per week.
