“St. George’s University joined forces with Monmouth University so that we can both positively address the physician and veterinarian shortage and help the state of New Jersey educate and train well-qualified professionals truly prepared to practice 21st century health care,” said Charles R. Modica, Chancellor of St. George’s. “These new students will join the over 1,500 New Jersey students and graduates who matriculated at St. George’s since we were founded 35 years ago.”
“Monmouth University is very pleased to partner with St. George’s to provide pathways for our students to move seamlessly from BS degree programs into MD or DVM programs,” noted Michael A. Palladino, Dean of the School of Science at Monmouth University.
With today’s joint announcement, St. George’s University in Grenada, West Indies, and Monmouth in West Long Branch, New Jersey, introduce combined BS/MD and BS/DVM degrees. Students admitted to this combined degree program complete their undergraduate degree in biology or health sciences at Monmouth University in four years, and upon meeting established admission criteria, progress into St. George’s University School of Medicine or School of Veterinary Medicine. Qualified medical students will be eligible to complete the first two years of study in Grenada and the final two of this combined program in clinical rotations at affiliated hospitals in the United States or the United Kingdom.
