College of Health Sciences

Your Gateway to the Health Professions

The College of Health Sciences embodies the World Health Organization statement: "Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." (WHO, 1948). We teach new models of affordable healthcare, the Patient Centered Medical Home concept, and expanded roles for practitioners, electronic medical records and telehealth. Students take advantage of opportunities to conduct research and volunteer through our many national and international clubs, organizations and programs.

UW Health Sciences educates the Wyoming health care workforce to provide high quality care to Wyoming and beyond. We proudly participate in WWAMI, a regional medical education program with the University of Washington School of Medicine. WWAMI is the primary means of access for allopathic medical education in Wyoming. UW Health Sciences also supports two Family Medicine Residency programs in Casper and Cheyenne.
