How is the NIMAA program structured?

NIMAA takes place over 29 weeks for about 30 hours/week. Instruction takes place online through live and recorded sessions, interactive materials in the learning management system, and online discussion groups. At the same time, students observe and practice the skills they are learning online at externship clinics under the supervision of experienced medical professionals during instructor-led remote labs and in-clinic experiences with clinical staff.
