The Bridge Program is designed to offer previous graduates of the bachelor’s physician assistant program the opportunity to obtain a professional Master’s degree in Physician Assistant Studies. The Bridge Program will be offered for the first three years following the transition of the bachelor’s program to the master’s program. The goal of this option is to provide an opportunity for practicing physician assistants to increase and enhance their medical knowledge and clinical skills. The three year offering should be sufficient time for previous graduates to enroll and complete the Bridge Program.
