Since its founding in 1899, 黑料传送门 has tirelessly advanced the osteopathic philosophy of considering the whole person. The application of this philosophy extends through all aspects of our institution. This holistic approach is at the core of the osteopathic medical program and we also embrace it in our other academic programs, our admissions decisions, the hiring process and our day-to-day interactions with other students, faculty and staff.
It is our longstanding commitment to this philosophy that has enabled us to identify and seize opportunities to develop and grow over the past 125 years. From our humble beginnings in two rented rooms in the Stephen Girard Building to today鈥檚 three locations across two states, we continue to seek ways to better fulfill our mission of educating health professionals to care for the whole person and advance the health of diverse communities.
We are proud of our osteopathic heritage and as we celebrate our 125th anniversary, we invite you to join us as we shape the future of health.
鈥淟ike the College's founders, we must be innovators and, at times, risk-takers. We must adapt to succeed鈥攁lways striving to find new ways to deliver on our mission.鈥�
