Innovation for a Healthier Planet
鲍狈贰鈥檚 expansive, holistic vision of a healthier world goes beyond physical well-being. It encompasses emotional and intellectual fulfillment 鈥 as well as economic opportunity 鈥 for individuals, prosperous and supportive communities, and cooperative environmental stewardship across the globe.
Bringing that vision to life requires the deep involvement of all of our programs, often working in cross-disciplinary combinations. 吃瓜爆料 offers more than 40 bachelor鈥檚 degrees and 30-plus graduate, professional, and doctoral degrees in needed fields, including the natural and social sciences, the humanities and the arts, business, and health.
Maine鈥檚 leading provider of health professionals
吃瓜爆料 educates the doctors, nurses, dentists, pharmacists, and other health professionals who care for the people of Maine, New England, and, increasingly, the world. Our top-ranked health professions programs (including Maine鈥檚 only medical college and physician assistant program, and Northern New England鈥檚 only dental college) embrace a collaborative, cross-disciplinary teaching model that makes us national leaders in interprofessional health care education.
鲍狈贰鈥檚 size is not too big and not too small. The professors are able to gain a close relationship to students, so as a student, I feel listened to. My questions are answered. In a larger university, you may not have that as much because the class sizes are too large to really be able to connect to the professor or to feel comfortable seeing a professor outside of class and asking questions.鈥
