Curriculum

Coursework and curriculum will be delivered on NEOMED’s Rootstown-based campus under the guidance of experienced experts. Students will be exposed to interprofessional education opportunities and clinical experiences within a health professions university.

Master in Foundations of Medicine

This one-year program introduces students to fundamental concepts in the biomedical sciences by combining aspects of the first-year medicine curriculum with introductory coursework in biomedical imaging.  There is also supporting coursework on personal and professional development as well as an introduction to the culture of medicine and scientific practice. Students finish the academic year completing a capstone project that involves an anatomical experience with an emphasis on a pathological area of interest. Students conduct a detailed dissection of the selected region and present a comprehensive report of the specific pathology by integrating material learned throughout the year.
