Inaugural Medical Student Selected for D.O./J.D. Joint Degree Program

In March, Carisa Lippmann, a second-year College of Osteopathic Medicine student, was the inaugural student accepted into the six-year NSU College of Osteopathic Medicine/Shepard Broad Law Center joint D.O./J.D. degree program. She will begin the law portion of her studies in July 2012.

This progressive joint-degree program is of very limited availability nationally and offers NSU an opportunity to be a leader in yet another academic area. Consideration is being given to making this pilot program a permanent joint-degree opportunity for NSU students.
