The College of Osteopathic Medicine will be the world’s first Jesuit College of Osteopathic Medicine and Ohio’s first new medical school in nearly 50 years, according to a Dec. 4 university news release. The facility, which breaks ground this week, anticipates welcoming its first class of 75 students in fall 2027.
The 130,000-square-foot facility will feature a simulation hospital with 16 exam rooms, five flexible simulation rooms, a 200-seat lecture hall and large meeting room, and a teaching kitchen.
By 2038, the college expects to have educated 1,300 physicians. The university is currently seeking programmatic accreditation.
