Clinical Learning
Experiential learning is crucial for preparing students to provide high-quality patient care. This is why we guarantee clinical experiences starting in the first year of your undergraduate program.
How We Approach Clinical Learning
Providing frequent clinical opportunities helps to ensure that you are prepared for a future in health care. You’ll be in the clinical setting during the first year of your program, helping transfer the knowledge and skills you’re learning in the classroom to actual patient care.
Guaranteed Clinical Placement

More Chances to Grow Your Skills
Our guaranteed clinical placements build your experience through more opportunities, in more ways. It’s not just about clinical skills – it’s about collaboration, problem solving and critical thinking to provide the best patient care possible.
Multiple Practices Within Your Discipline
Students are placed in a number of settings, like hospitals, outpatient sites or private practices. Each placement offers an opportunity to use different skills, equipment and expertise.
Finding Where You Fit
More facilities and roles means you you can find the practice area that suits you. It also connects you to potential job opportunities, now or after graduation.
Personal Learning from Top Professionals
Clinical rotations are done in small groups that guarantee plenty of patient and instructor exposure.
Where We Place Our Students
We work with institutions across eight counties. Our partnerships with premier health systems like Penn Medicine, Lancaster General, Wellspan Health, UPMC and Leigh Valley Health Network open doors to diverse learning opportunities.
Preparing in Simulation
Clinical studies align with immersive, interdisciplinary scenarios in our Simulation Center. The Center provides a safe learning environment for students to perfect their skills – especially with more challenging cases they may not encounter in the clinical environment.
