As senior PhD faculty members move into administrative roles or retire, and the number of osteopathic and allopathic medical schools and physician assistant and nurse practitioner programs increase, the demand for Anatomy Educators will continue to grow demonstrating a definite need for Doctoral level Anatomy Educators. Despite these needs, there is a shortage of programs providing such doctoral level training in anatomy education with only three programs in North America. These programs will not be able to keep pace with the need for PhD Anatomists. With such a shortage of appropriately trained faculty, the need for effective teaching is stronger than ever. LECOM Erie is proud to recognize this need and offer a Doctoral in Anatomy Education Program (DAE).Program Goals:The DAE Program is a 4-year program in Anatomy Education centered on three goals. The student shall:Develop mastery in the knowledge of anatomical sciencesDevelop mastery in the skills of anatomical educationDevelop positive attitudes and professional behaviors of a competent anatomy educatorThe program provides doctoral-level curriculum in the anatomical sciences. Students will be required to complete teaching practicums and conduct original research in anatomy education. Graduates of this program will be highly knowledgeable and skillful anatomy education specialists who will be well equipped to train the next generation of healthcare providers. As a result, graduates will be highly marketable and sought after. ................
