Undergraduate Medical Education (D.O.)
Pre-Clinical Education (Years 1 and 2)
Beginning with intensive training and osteopathic manipulative medicine, you’ll divide your learning time between the lab, lecture hall, and clinical settings, building a strong foundation with hands-on experience.
Clinical Education (Years 3 and 4)
Your second two years will put your knowledge and skills to the test in real-world clinical settings, exposing you to many different medical specialties while you learn under some of today’s brightest physicians.
