Department of Physician Assistant Studies

Jane Trapp, Chair

The mission of the Department of Physician Assistant Studies is to prepare physician assistant graduates through educational and clinical experiences to improve the health and well-being of patients while increasing access to primary medical care in eastern North Carolina and the state. We seek to achieve this mission in an educational community where faculty, staff, clinical instructors, students, and other health care providers work together in an atmosphere of mutual respect, cooperation, compassion, and commitment.

Program applicants should review departmental technical standards to ensure they meet the minimum capabilities to perform in the professions. Standards can be found on the department’s website in the admissions section.

Information about physician assistant studies at ECU is available on the department’s website.
