Wow! What can be more promising for a town then to have a medical school built right here in Joplin! Decades in the planning, but finally a reality, KCU Joplin a division of Kansas City University School of Medicine and Biosciences is here for real. The first class actually started in the fall of 2017. What an amazing transformation that our once nearly obliterated town has undergone.
Here is some more information about this great University in Joplin
Making more dreams come true – KCU-Joplin
The expansion of KCU into Joplin, Mo., marks a significant milestone. KCU-Joplin is the first medical school to open in Missouri in nearly 50 years and the only medical school in the southwest region
Farber-McIntire Campus
The Farber-McIntire campus was made possible by our community partners, including Mercy Hospital Joplin, Freeman Health System, the City of Joplin and philanthropic leadership from the surrounding community.
The building was once the former temporary hospital donated to KCU by Mercy Hospital Joplin. The renovations include an expansion of nearly 20,000 square feet that includes a large lecture hall, learning studio and lab dedicated to osteopathic manipulative medicine courses.
The school’s simulation suite includes 24 standardized patient exam rooms and three simulation rooms featuring high-fidelity, programmable robots in fully equipped medical, surgical, obstetrical and trauma settings.
Extended video conferencing capabilities connect the Joplin campus to the KC campus, allowing students, faculty and staff to share learning opportunities.
