About the Institution
Northeast Ohio Medical University, also known as NEOMED, and formerly known as the Northeastern Ohio Universities Colleges of Medicine and Pharmacy (NEOUCOM), is a community-based, public state university that offers a Doctor of Medicine degree (M.D.) and combined B.S./M.D. program, which allows students to graduate with their B.S. and M.D. in as few as six or seven years; a Doctor of Pharmacy degree (Pharm.D.); a Master of Public Health degree (M.P.H.); a Bioethics Certificate; and, a Master of Science (M.S.) and Doctoral degree (Ph.D.) in Integrated Pharmaceutical Medicine.
The campus is located in Rootstown, Ohio, approximately 14 miles (23 km) east of Akron, and is the only medical school in the country that has a partnership with four state universities: the University of Akron, Cleveland State University, Kent State University, and Youngstown State University,[1] as well as 17 hospitals. This relationship allows the university to focus on its mission of providing highly trained physicians oriented to the practice of medicine at the community level, while at the same time remaining cost-effective for students and taxpayers of Ohio. Class size is typically around 105-110 medicine students.
