Students at the Scottsdale campus will have the opportunity to enroll in courses developed and taught by Mayo Clinic and ASU officials. The curriculum results from a decade-long collaboration between the two organizations, called the Mayo Clinic and Arizona State University Alliance for Health Care.
Under the Mayo Clinic-ASU alliance, students at all of Mayo Clinic’s medical school campuses will receive a medical degree from the Mayo Clinic, as well as a certificate in the science of healthcare delivery jointly conferred by the Mayo Clinic and ASU. Students will also have the opportunity to take on an additional 12 credit hours to pursue a master’s degree in the science of healthcare delivery from ASU, and will be able to potentially pursue a dual master’s degree in a variety of disciplines.
The Scottsdale campus, along with the medical school’s three other locations in Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., and Phoenix will be led by Michele Y. Halyard, MD, interim dean of the Mayo Clinic School of Medicine.
