VCOM-Affiliated Masters Programs
Master of Arts in Biomedical Sciences
If you dream of becoming a physician and want to make sure you’re ready to excel in medical school, then the Master of Arts in Biomedical Sciences (MABS) degree may be the perfect fit for you. The 9-month program, a collaboration between VCOM and Bluefield University, is taught at the VCOM campus in Blacksburg. Or, you can earn the degree 100% online with OMABS, without the need to relocate to Blacksburg. Both degrees prepare students for a range of professions in healthcare. Plus, meeting the benchmarks in the program can provide a significant advantage for acceptance into VCOM to complete your D.O. degree.
While this program is a collaborative partnership between Bluefield University and VCOM, the degree is granted and conferred solely by Bluefield University and is not affiliated with the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine or any of VCOM’s affiliated colleges or universities including but not limited to Virginia Tech, Auburn University, or the University of Louisiana Monroe.
Master of Health Science in Anesthesia Program
The Master of Health Science in Anesthesia (MHSA) Program is a joint collaboration between the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM) and Bluefield University and will reside in a state-of-the-art learning space on VCOM’s campus in Auburn, Alabama. The centralized location of facilities allows for easy student access to the local clinical rotation sites as well as a plethora of activities for student enjoyment, an unrivaled campus experience, and plenty of affordable housing in the immediate surrounding area.
