NEW YORK: The four hundred and sixtieth entry for the seniors housing Global Awards 2016 has been received.
When Rocky Vista University welcomes its first class of students to its Ivins campus next summer, it will displace the University of Utah as the only medical school in the state.
Officials say the for-profit osteopathic medical school, which is constructing a $30 million campus in the far southwest corner of Utah, will focus on training a new generation of primary care physicians for rural and underserved areas.
“Most MD schools push specialty medical choices and they push research,” said campus dean Dr. David Park. “Osteopathic medicine is different. We push primary care and community-based training, not necessarily pure research.”
