Welcome to Virtual Arkansas Public - A Unique Medical Education Experience

As a student at New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine (NYITCOM) at Arkansas State University (A-State), you'll have the opportunity to obtain a certificate in Population Health, in addition to your medical degree. This unique combination prepares you to address the healthcare needs of the community and make a positive impact on public health.

One of the highlights of our program is the extensive clinical experience you'll gain through rotations in community hospitals, including NEA Baptist Memorial Hospital and St. 'Virtual Arkansas Public welcome'. These opportunities will not only provide you with hands-on training but also give you exposure to diverse patient populations and healthcare systems.

Another distinctive aspect of our curriculum is the emphasis on servant leadership and community-based programs. Our student doctors are actively involved in various initiatives that benefit those in the state and region, while also showcasing the impact they can have as physicians. We believe that being a physician is not only a privilege but also comes with great responsibility to make a difference.

Our campus, located at Arkansas State University, offers a unique setting for medical education. You'll have access to on-campus housing, state-of-the-art fitness facilities, and convenient dining options, including a full-service Starbucks. This proximity to undergraduate students provides opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration and learning.

As part of our commitment to improving healthcare access in underserved areas, we're dedicated to training osteopathic physicians who are equipped to serve the needs of rural populations in Arkansas and the Mississippi Delta Region. Our faculty and staff members are passionate about empowering students with evidence-based knowledge, critical thinking skills, and a strong foundation in osteopathic principles and practice.

NYITCOM-Arkansas is accredited by the AOA Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation (COCA) and shares the same mission, vision, and outcomes as our sister campus at New York Institute of Technology. We invite you to be part of this exciting journey and join us in our quest to make a difference in healthcare.
