Alvernia University is partnering with Scott Healy & Associates to hire for the position of Physician Associate Program - Program Director
Alvernia University, in partnership with the national search firm Scott Healy & Associates, invites applications and nominations for the position of Physician Associate Program - Program Director. This is an exciting opportunity to lead a growing Physician Associate Program at a university that demonstrates clear institutional commitment to its health sciences and professional programs. Alvernia has invested significantly in outstanding facilities, modern instructional and lab spaces, and the infrastructure necessary to support high-quality PA education. That investment, paired with engaged leadership and collaborative faculty, creates a strong foundation for continued program development and long-term success.
Alvernia University, located in Reading, Pennsylvania (just an hour from Philadelphia), is a vibrant intellectual community where students learn, discover, give, and grow as leaders. Guided by Franciscan values and the ideal of “knowledge joined with love,” and rooted in the Catholic and liberal arts traditions, Alvernia offers a rigorous, caring, and inclusive environment committed to academic excellence. The University develops broadly educated, lifelong learners, reflective professionals, and engaged citizens who lead with integrity and moral courage. The Physician Associate Program at Alvernia offers two pathways to obtain a Master of Medical Science in Physician Associate Studies: a Bio-PA (3+2) accelerated track, and a traditional post-baccalaureate track designed for students who have obtained a baccalaureate degree. This is an exciting time for the program as ARC-PA has granted Accreditation-Provisional status to the Alvernia University Physician Associate Program.
