numerous continuing education programs

What Education at OHSU means for Oregon
OHSU is Oregon's only academic health
center and plays a vital role in educating
the professionals who can meet the needs of
the state and its citizens. The university
continually assesses healthcare shortages in
every region of the state. Based on those
assessments, OHSU develops curricula and
policies designed to improve the geographic
distribution of healthcare professionals in
Oregon. We train providers in high-demand
specialties and inspire future clinicians to
practice in parts of the state where their
skills will be needed most.
Schools
The university grants the state's only
doctoral degrees in medicine, nursing,
dentistry, and health-focused engineering.
Doctoral degrees in pharmacy are also
granted, in partnership with Oregon State
University. In addition, OHSU provides many
specialized research programs unique to the
region and educates master's-level,
undergraduate and certificate students in a
broad spectrum of health and information
sciences.
