For years, Rowan University and Cooper University Hospital have been dynamic, nationally respected leaders in the fields of higher education and medicine. Now, in a move that will fundamentally change the face of healthcare and education in the state, the two longstanding South Jersey institutions are joining together to form Cooper Medical School of Rowan University.

The medical school, which will be located in Camden, would be the first four-year allopathic medical school ever in South Jersey—and the first new medical school in the State of New Jersey in the past 30 years.

As we collaborate on this endeavor, we promise:

• We will rethink health care delivery from the ground up.
• We will build the backbone for a growing industry sector in medicine, biomedicine and technology.
• We will increase educational opportunities in the region and boost economic development.

Most importantly, we will create a medical school that will be revered for its innovations as well as the talent of its graduates and the impact they will have on our region.

Join us as we set out to change medicine as we know it today.
