About the program
Overview
Mission statement
To provide a focused, two-year learning experience that leverages Chamberlain's rich history in preparing healthcare professionals for the occupational and licensure requirements they need to excel.
Program features
The didactic curriculum is delivered in an integrated organ-based modular approach to encourage critical thinking and problem solving. PA faculty team-teach these comprehensive, integrated modules so the medical content is presented in a coordinated way, helping students gain greater perspective and work through medical case scenarios they may see in clinical practice.
Clinical rotations
The clinical phase consists of 10 four‑week clinical clerkships in family medicine, internal medicine, emergency medicine, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, behavioral health, an underserved population clerkship, and two electives.
