A unique aspect to the University of Iowa Physician Assistant Program is the Learning Communities. All PA students are randomly assigned to one of the four Learning Communities during the Orientation Program at the start of their educational journey. The Learning Communities provide our students opportunities to foster relationships with their fellow PA and MD colleagues, develop leadership skills, and connect with community services initiatives in the greater Iowa City Community.
