A Reputation for Excellence
Ross University School of Medicine is committed to pushing the frontiers of medical education and providing our students with the foundation they need to pursue a successful career in medicine.
Here are just a few of the ways Ross maintains a reputation for excellence:
Curriculum
Ross University School of Medicine thoroughly grounds you with a rigorous Foundations of Medicine curriculum. In just four semesters (16 months) at our campus on Dominica you’ll take the courses that will provide you with an essential foundation in developmental and microscopic anatomy, biochemistry, medical genetics, neuroscience, gross anatomy, physiology, microbiology, immunology, pathology, pharmacology, behavioral sciences, and an introduction to clinical medicine.
Facilities
Learning is more effective and efficient when it’s supported by the right technology. This is particularly true when it comes to educating doctors who must learn to make judgments based on skilled observation of visual clues. At Ross University School of Medicine, you’ll have the benefit of exceptional teaching and laboratory facilities designed with extensive multi-media and simulation capabilities.
Faculty
Ultimately, what makes a medical school is the quality of its faculty. At Ross University School of Medicine, you’ll benefit from a 70-person Foundations of Medicine faculty with impeccable credentials as physicians, teachers and researchers. Every member of the Ross University faculty holds an M.D. and/or Ph.D. degree. Many are also Board Certified in their specialties.
Clinical Rotations
Ross University School of Medicine is proud to be affiliated with more than 70 teaching hospitals in the United States. This extensive network of affiliations makes it possible for our students to receive superior education while completing their clinical rotations in the U.S. Our roster of affiliated institutions includes some of the best known teaching hospitals in the country.
Residencies
Virtually all graduates now obtain residencies at the earliest available start dates and are well received by residency directors in Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-approved hospitals throughout the United States.
Licensing
Some states (New Jersey, New York, California and Florida) require approval for international medical schools. Ross University School of Medicine is proud to be approved in each of these states. In addition, the Texas Medical Board has concluded that Ross University School of Medicine is substantially equivalent to Texas Medical Schools. Ross graduates can obtain their licenses in Texas.
