Regional Campus Information
The Multi-Campus System
The first two years of the Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ SOM doctor of medicine program are offered on the Ογ½ΆΦ±²₯ Lubbock campus, contiguous with Texas Tech University. In Year 3 students move to their clinical training site on one of our four campuses: Lubbock, Amarillo, Covenant or Odessa. Students are provided diverse clinical experiences in community hospitals and in the School of Medicine's ambulatory clinics. In the fourth year, students may take elective experiences at any of the regional campuses and at other institutions.
The educational program at each campus is comparable as indicated by the number and types of patients seen by students and by student performance on measures such as National Board of Medical Examiners subject exams, oral examinations, departmental examinations, and clinical ratings by faculty.
Assignments to the regional campuses are based to the extent possible on a preference
form that each
student will complete prior to being assigned to any of the regional campuses.
The Amarillo campus began in 1972 with the forming of the medical school in Lubbock. Elective rotations for students were performed in space borrowed from the Northwest Texas Hospital and the VA Medical Center. In 1975, the Amarillo HSC established its own permanent location. In 1978, the first medical school class of five students entered the Amarillo campus. That number has steadily risen to 65 third- and fourth-year students in September 2006. In Amarillo, clinical education is provided in area hospitals and health care facilities. These include Northwest Texas Hospital, Baptist St. Anthony Hospital, Don and Sybil Harrington Cancer Center, the Psychiatric Pavilion, and the Veterans Administration Hospital of Amarillo.
