The University of Nebraska Medical Center has been graduating physician assistants since 1975. In 2007, the Physician Assistant Alumni Chapter was established. This Chapter was formed to cultivate career and patient referral networking, to host reunions and social activities for alumni and students, to promote professional advocacy and community service and to provide alumni with a stronger connection to UNMC, the School of Allied Health Professionals and the Physician Assistant Program.
The PA Alumni Chapter supports the Annual White Coat Professional Induction Ceremony for first year students. Click here to make a white coat donation.
If you have any questions or are interested in participating in the Chapter, please email alumni@unmc.edu or call 402-559-4385.
