VCOM Virginia Campus

VCOM-Virginia Campus

Opening in 2003, VCOM’s first campus, the Virginia campus, is located in Blacksburg, Virginia, in the Corporate Research Center of Virginia Tech and operates as a private/public collaborative venture with the University.  Located in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains area, the campus is surrounded by beautiful mountain views, clear streams, and an exciting university community of over 38,000 undergraduate and graduate students.  The public/private agreement between VCOM and Virginia Tech allows VCOM students an opportunity to enjoy the arts, athletics, and sporting events of a major university but still allows VCOM to maintain the small family feel of a private college. 

The main campus building in Blacksburg, Virginia, is approximately 60,000 square feet and is situated on a 13-acre campus. In addition to two theatre classrooms, which seat 190 each, 15 moderately sized rooms are available for small-group learning.  The main campus building includes a state-of-the-art anatomy lab, physical exam and osteopathic manipulative medicine training lab, library, and student study and lounge space.  The Simulation and Technology Center houses cutting-edge high-fidelity human medical simulators, standardized patient examination rooms, simulated surgical and intensive care unit suites, physical diagnosis and osteopathic manual therapy training labs, simulated radiology experiences, and room for additional medical education programs.

The 13-acre main campus includes a walking and biking path, a small lake, an amphitheater, and outside patios, providing students with both indoor and outdoor environments for study and activities.

This campus has an affiliated teaching clinic with student rotations, including the Sports and Osteopathic Medicine Clinic, which also sponsors ONMM3 residenciessports medicine fellowships, and research programs.

The Center for One Health on the main Virginia Tech campus is a grant-funded research lab for collaborating biomedical faculty from VCOM and the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine.

While VCOM has formed a collaborative partnership with Virginia Tech, the degree of Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine is granted and conferred solely by the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine and is not affiliated with any of VCOM’s affiliated colleges or universities, including but not limited to Virginia Tech, Auburn University, or the University of Louisiana Monroe. 

 

Each year, the College admits 185 medical students per class, for a total student body of 700.
