America’s health system faces unprecedented challenges, and meeting them requires a fundamentally different kind of physician — one with dual training in medicine and engineering who can deliver the highest standards of care and help redesign how that care is delivered. That’s why Arizona State University created a new kind of medical school: to train doctors who don’t just work within the system, but have the skills and vision to transform it.

Through a powerful blend of clinical education, engineering, artificial intelligence, interprofessional collaboration, humanism and systems thinking, graduates from the John Shufeldt School of Medicine and Medical Engineering will be equipped to solve real-world problems and drive meaningful change in care.

Built from the ground up at the nation’s most innovative university, the school reimagines medical education for the demands of today and tomorrow — preparing future physicians to make health care more effective, more responsive and more connected to the people it serves.

The medical school is one facet of ASU Health, an unprecedented approach to health created by ASU, that will transform how health care is designed, delivered and measured while also producing health care leaders who will be focused every day on Arizona’s health.
