Introduction
The Rocky Vista University MCOM Master of Medical Sciences Program is a 1-year program that provides students with a deep foundation in biomedical sciences, humanism, and professionalism in an immersive medical school environment.
*Please Note this Program is only Available at our Montana Campus
Why choose the MMS program?
The Master of Medical Sciences (MMS) program has been carefully designed for students who have a strong ambition to go to medical school or other health professional school but do not yet meet the requirements after they've completed their undergraduate degree. Students in the program are immersed in the Montana College of Osteopathic Medicine (MCOM) curriculum so that candidates can gain foundational biomedical sciences knowledge alongside first-year medical students. All courses are offered and taught by MCOM faculty. Students are required to attend on-campus in Billings, MT. Courses cover the normal functioning of the systems of the human body.
Highlights:
- Study alongside medical school students
- Set yourself up for success in medical school or other health professional school
- Gain admission to the MCOM after 1-year program if high standards are met
