The college’s Physician Assistant (PA) Studies program received a $767,500 grant from the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation. The grant will support the program’s development and provide scholarships for underserved minority groups.
Congratulations to Sandy Miller for her great work on this grant with Aimee Larson!
Canisius welcomed its first cohort of 30 students to the PA program for the spring 2021 semester this January. A new cohort of 30 students will enter the 27-month master’s degree program each fall thereafter.
The PA program builds on the strong foundation of the college’s pre-medical and general science programming and leverages partnerships with local hospitals and health systems. This first-rate program prepares practitioners to become nationally certified and state-licensed medical professionals, who practice medicine and deliver medical services with physician supervision.
