1 The Macomb University Center Catalog Higher Education Partnerships in Macomb County

2 The idea was ahead of its time Higher Education Partnerships The Macomb University Center (UC) is the first of its kind anywhere. The concept: in partnership with 12 four-year institutions, you can complete a bachelor s, master s or doctoral degree in over 80 different fields right on Macomb Community College s Center Campus. The Macomb University Center was opened in 1991 to meet the needs of people like you: ambitious, focused on your career, ready to add to your credentials, and eager to move ahead professionally. Most of all, the UC responds to reality: you re busy, and a degree program that fits your schedule and is conveniently located is a real benefit. On average, UC students work 38 hours per week. They include men and women in the process of a career change, professionals who have reached a career plateau, and individuals who want to move up the career ladder. Every degree program offered is designed to provide the fundamentals needed for success. The partnership brings together Macomb College and the prestige of Michigan s leading colleges and universities including: Central Michigan University Ferris State University Madonna University Michigan State University Northern Michigan University Northwood University Oakland University Rochester College University of Detroit Mercy Walsh College Wayne State University Western Michigan University Macomb provides the technologically-rich facilities and the resources you need to succeed, and our partner institutions provide the faculty and the curriculum. When you enroll, your financial obligation will be to that institution and your degree will be awarded from that institution as well. In 2009, the Macomb University Center became home to an expansion site of the Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine (MSUCOM). The MSUCOM at the UC provides the first two years of an osteopathic physician s education. Your best source of information for transferring to a Macomb University Center partner is to contact the institution you wish to attend. Each partner has an office located in the Macomb University Center; or, if you are a Macomb student, our counselors and advisors can assist you. Following in this catalog is information about each partner and their programs and courses offered at the UC. Still have questions?

While the educational program of the MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine is geared primarily to the training of primary medicine physicians, the curriculum and educational programs are designed also to meet the continuing need for medical specialists and teacher-investigators. Traditionally, osteopathic education seeks to prepare physicians who are especially concerned with maintaining continuing personal relationships with patients, their families, and their optimum interaction with the community environmental patterns. This emphasis is reflected in the nature of the curriculum and particularly reinforced during clinical clerkship rotations through a variety of clinical disciplines in both hospital and non-hospital settings.
