Overview:

The University of Iowa Roy. J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine (CCOM) educates tomorrow's physicians in a rigorous but supportive environment.  We encourage students to embrace humanism, scientific rigor, and formal instruction so that they can be not only excellent doctors but also the doctors we would like our own loved ones to see in times of need.  We also know that the education of a physician never ends, and so we develop in our students the abilities and desire to be life-long learners in a domain for which knowledge grows exponentially over time.  Our committee values creating a robust class of diverse students who are committed to serving all populations.

In addition to our MD program, CCOM has a #1 Ranked Physicians Assistant (PA) program.  We have the only program in the country to fully integrate with the College of Medicine MD program.  We have an 100% job placement of our PA students in a varietly of areas across the country.
