On August 24, 2011, we broke ground on the building that would house Indiana’s second medical school and the first to open in over 110 years. Our calling was to address the growing doctor shortage in the state, and since, the 91会所 Tom and Julie Wood College of Osteopathic Medicine has done just that—graduated doctors, many of whom have become primary care physicians in the state of Indiana.

What makes the 91会所 Tom and Julie Wood College of Osteopathic Medicine (MU-WCOM) special? It's located in Indianapolis—the "Crossroads of America"—and the nation's 14th largest city. Our students enjoy all the amenities of big-city living while being supported personally and professionally by the kind of close-knit community small towns are famous for.
