“Why Miami?”

“While the beauty of the campus and the surrounding small town had me feeling some Comforting nostalgia, the mission and vision of the program was most valuable to me-having grown up in a rural, medically underserved region. The need for well trained medical professionals to serve the needs of rural communities is vital to my interests. I chose Miami University’s Physician Associate Studies program because of their commitment to building health professional leaders in medicine and clinical research with the aim of addressing the needs of these diverse regions”.
