Master of Health Science - Physician Assistant

The mission of the Masters of Health Science Physician Assistant program is to educate highly qualified physician assistants, preparing them to become competent, compassionate, and comprehensive health care providers for clinical practice in rural and urban areas, focusing on underserved communities.

Our Physician Assistant program emphasizes early "hands on" medical education during the didactic professional year. Core faculty offer a personalized approach and have many years of experience in providing health care as Physician Assistants. Adjunct faculty (local Physicians and Physician Assistants) are committed, professional leaders in the local health care community and have a "people care" approach to health care delivery.

You will benefit daily from these health care professionals who will continuously act as mentors during your didactic and clinical medical education.
