COM Dean Marc Hahn featured in Courier

In the Courier's February 4, 2010 article, "成人直播 envisions second medical school," COM Dean Marc Hahn said he wants to establish a second medical school while growing the 成人直播 College of Osteopathic Medicine to serve more students in a new state-of-the-art facility. Hahn, dean of the medical school and senior vice president of health affairs, last week outlined his vision for the future of Maine's only medical school.  He emphasized the need to grow the medical school while maintaining its osteopathic tradition.  Hahn said he also plans to grow its scholarship fund to $1 million and establish a second medical school in the United States or internationally.

"The 成人直播 is quickly becoming a national and international model for inter-professional health education." he said. "The quality of health care in the state of Maine and New England is being shaped by the strategic planning at [the university]."  Hahn also announced plans to hire an associate dean for academic affairs within the next three months to develop a "state-of-the-art" curriculum. "The curriculum will include opportunities for simulation training and more clinical science in the first two years," he said.
