Originally structured as a four year post baccalaureate program, it prepared graduates for PA licensure and national certification while reflecting Augsburg\u2019s mission grounded in service, community engagement, and academic excellence. The inaugural class of 23 students began in Anderson Hall, completing 12 months of didactic coursework followed by 15 months of clinical rotations and a 12 week preceptorship.<\/p>\n<p>In 2002, Augsburg transitioned to the Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies degree, among the first programs in the nation to award the master\u2019s credential. As the profession evolved, Augsburg continued to lead its advancement. The University became the first in Minnesota to launch the <strong>Doctor of Medical Science<\/strong> degree for PAs and the first in the state to formally adopt the national professional title of <strong>Physician Associate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The creation of the <strong>Department of Physician Associate Medicine<\/strong> within the School of Health further reflects Augsburg\u2019s commitment to strengthening professional identity, advancing scope of practice, and preparing leaders in team based healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the 27 month program includes 15 months of clinically integrated coursework in anatomy, clinical medicine, pharmacotherapy, history and physical examination, community health, and evidence based practice, followed by 12 months of supervised clinical rotations in family medicine, internal medicine, behavioral health, surgery, emergency medicine, reproductive health, pediatrics, and electives. Students train in diverse healthcare settings across Minnesota, the Upper Midwest, and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>For more than three decades, Augsburg has not simply educated PAs.<br \/>\nIt has helped shape the profession in Minnesota.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-934-5\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"parallax-bg-image-section panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-934-5\" ><div id=\"pgc-934-5-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div class=\"parallax-bg-text-content panel-cell-style panel-cell-style-for-934-5-0\" ><div id=\"panel-934-5-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_siteorigin-panels-builder panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"8\" ><div id=\"pl-w6a0b835497ac6\"  class=\"panel-layout\" ><div id=\"pg-w6a0b835497ac6-0\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-w6a0b835497ac6-0-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w6a0b835497ac6-0-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child\" data-index=\"0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h2>Why Augsburg?<\/h2>\n<p>We strive to provide PA education based on a foundation of respect and sensitivity to people of every culture and background.

(ARC-PA) has granted\u00a0<b>Accreditation-Continued status<\/b>\u00a0to the Augsburg University Physician Assistant Program sponsored by Augsburg University. Accreditation-Continued is an accreditation status granted when a currently accredited program is in compliance with the ARC-PA Standards. Accreditation remains in effect until the program closes or withdraws from the accreditation process or until accreditation is withdrawn for failure to comply with the Standards. The approximate date for the next validation review of the program by the ARC-PA will be 2029 June. The review date is contingent upon continued compliance with the Accreditation Standards and ARC-PA policy.<\/p>\n<p>The program\u2019s accreditation history can be viewed on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.arc-pa.org\/accreditation-history-augsburg-university\/\">ARC-PA website.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-934-12\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"siteorigin-panels-stretch panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-934-12\" data-stretch-type=\"full-width-stretch\" ><div id=\"pgc-934-12-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-934-12-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"16\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><center><p><a type=\"button\" class=\"btn btn-default btn-lg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/undergrad\/\">Admissions<\/a><\/p><\/center><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-934-12-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-934-12-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"17\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><center><p><a type=\"button\" class=\"btn btn-default btn-lg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/studentfinancial\/\">Financial Aid<\/a><\/p><\/center><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-934-12-2\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-934-12-2-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"18\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><center><p><a type=\"button\" class=\"btn btn-default btn-lg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/academics\/\">Academics<\/a><\/p><\/center><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-934-12-3\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-934-12-3-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"19\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><center><p><a type=\"button\" class=\"btn btn-default btn-lg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/studentlife\/\">Student Life<\/a><\/p><\/center><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Master of Science in Physician Associate Studies Apply Contact Admissions Information Sessions HomeAugsburg PA History and Mission Curriculum and Policies &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":348,"featured_media":5171,"parent":0,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"template-parallax.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-934","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/934","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/348"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=934"}],"version-history":[{"count":257,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/934\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5382,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/934\/revisions\/5382"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=934"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
