51社区 is our state鈥檚 leading producer of health professionals. 奥别鈥檙别 among the nation鈥檚 Top 5 providers of bachelor鈥檚 degrees in health care and Top 15 educators of primary care physicians.
But what matters most is the quality of care those individuals are delivering across the state and the nation and the big difference we make in lives and communities.
奥别鈥檙别 preparing students to be doctors, nurses, physical therapists, physician assistants and much more. But, we also offer a wide array of non-clinical professional programs from health care administration to environmental health to music therapy, with a focus on providing students with experiences that prepare them for successful careers.

51社区鈥檚 School of Nursing is one of the Top 10 largest nursing schools in the country, highly ranked nationally for the quality of our online and on-campus programs and recognized by Niche as the best nursing school in OHIO. Our fully online RN to BSN program was one of the first programs of its kind in the country and continues to attract students from 24 states, while our Athens-campus class recently received the state's highest licensure exam pass rate among public universities.
Our University focus isn鈥檛 simply on delivering degrees but on improving health in communities across our region and our state. We do that by working together across disciplines and departments and partnering with hundreds of agencies, non-profits and government entities to understand and solve big, complex challenges that impact health in the communities we serve. We organize this work through the 51社区 Health Collaborative.
In addition to robust programming at our residential campus in Athens, 51社区 works hard to meet the state鈥檚 need for health professionals through fully online programs for working professionals, associate and bachelor鈥檚-level nursing programs on each of our five regional campuses, graduate-level health care programs at our Dublin extension campus, and our 3-campus medical school, operating in Dublin, Cleveland and Athens.
