No matter which discipline you choose, UMKC will provide:
- Excellent teaching in coursework and through clinical hands-on experiences. UMKC’s health professions are part of the UMKC Health Sciences District, a unique academic health district that partners with several of the best hospitals and health centers in the region to give students early patient interaction, high-quality training and research opportunities.
- Community involvement in health care. From giving screening exams to flu shots, to helping in outreach clinics and hospitals, UMKC students from the health sciences schools volunteer at health-related events in Kansas City and throughout Missouri.
- Enriching urban experiences in a vibrant community. As Kansas City’s historic university, UMKC offers students all the benefits of a great city: cultural events, concerts, food, sports teams, shopping, recreation and nightlife. The UMKC Health Sciences Campus is in the heart of downtown and close to many of the area’s top attractions.
