Master en Sciences Médicales pour Assistant Médical

The Master of Medical Science Physician Assistant Program is a seven-semester program based in the UMKC School of Medicine. Students enrolled in our program benefit from the extensive medical education resources offered by the School of Medicine, such as the Clinical Training Facility, Health Sciences Library, and Medical Education Media Center.

Our program is located on the UMKC Hospital Hill campus in the heart of Kansas City. The UMKC School of Medicine is proud to be one of 10 neighboring partners of the UMKC Health Sciences District, a premier academic health district engaging in cutting-edge biomedical research and entrepreneurship, delivering state-of-the science health care, and educating the next generation of healthcare professionals. Our program’s unique location offers access to community health centers, academic medical affiliates, and surrounding rural locations, which provide students experiences in a wide variety of settings that serve diverse patient populations.

The University of Missouri opened a medical school in Kansas City in 1971 to meet the health care needs of Missouri and the nation. Using an alternative approach to medical education from that of the traditional four-year school, the UMKC School of Medicine accepts students directly out of high school for the combined baccalaureate/ Doctor of Medicine program, which allows students to graduate in six years with their medical degree.

The School’s innovative curriculum provides students with early and continuous patient-care experience and fully integrates liberal arts/humanities, basic sciences and clinical medicine. The learning environment de-emphasizes competition and encourages learning through close faculty-student interaction and student partnerships.
