The Master of Science in Anesthesia Science program prepares graduates to deliver anesthesia care patients of all ages and across a complete spectrum of illness. The anesthesiologist assistant program pairs classroom learning with practical application of that knowledge to help students be better prepared for their career field*.
Students in the anesthesiologist assistant program have the opportunity to experience early immersion into hospital clinical experience. A fully-equipped mock operating room and anesthesia learning lab permits students to practice what an anesthesiologist assistant can do and apply their skills. The program was developed to provide education in current practices in anesthesiology and instill the highest standards of professionalism and service to patients.
