The Future of Medicine

Rowan has become a center for medical education and a place of opportunity for anyone interested in the health professions. We’ve launched the Cooper Medical School of Rowan University in Camden. We’ve welcomed the School of Osteopathic Medicine to Rowan. And we are creating a new College of Health Sciences in partnership with Rutgers-Camden.

When you set foot on Rowan’s campus, you’ll be impressed. And when you come back in a year, it will be even better. The reason is that Rowan keeps investing in new facilities. From a growing list of state-of-the-art academic buildings to an expanding array of residential choices, from new outdoor spaces to a renovated student center, this is what a thriving university looks like.

The latest and greatest: A sampling of facilities most recently opened or upgraded Barnes & Noble Collegiate Superstore James Hall The Rec Center (fitness facility) Rowan Boulevard Apartments The Rowan Marketplace (dining facility) Samuel H. Jones Innovation Center Science Hall University Townhouses Wellness Center at Winan’s Hall The Whitney Center (honors housing)

It would be hard to name an institution that could offer you a better opportunity to prepare for the future you want. From academic programs that reflect current industry needs to an outstanding range of internships to the complete support of our Career Management Center, all the ingredients are here to help you achieve your goals.

your life

The right size. With about 12,000 undergraduates, Rowan is an ideal size—small enough for personal connections, large enough to support 140 student clubs, a full schedule of concerts and activities, and a highly competitive athletics program.You can walk this campus in 10 minutes, yet you can spend four years here and never discover all the things there are to do.

One reason to choose a school with plenty of extracurricular options is that it’s fun. Another is that you’ll never stop learning. Whether it’s getting involved in your residence hall or attending a cultural event, taking on a community service project or leading a club, you will find yourself exploring new interests, building new skills, and growing as a person.

Learning around the clock.
