Timeline

The curriculum for the PA Program is broken into a didactic year and a clinical year:

Didactic Year

The didactic year consists of a series of courses taught using an organ system approach (cardiology, pulmonary, etc.), with pediatrics, infectious disease, emergency medicine, geriatrics, and genetics included across each system. Both lecture and small-group formats are used to deliver the curriculum, highlighted by a problem-based learning approach. The didactic year will also include instruction in evidence-based medicine and pre-clinical year prep and procedures course.
