ROSEMAN UNIVERSITY OF HEALTH SCIENCES A NEVADA NON-PROFIT CORP
Challenge. Rethink. Roseman.
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Since its inception, Roseman University has worked to fill unmet needs in our community. The University established Nevada's first College of Pharmacy, which twenty years later, remains the sole College of Pharmacy training the Pharmacist workforce in Nevada. Subsequent program development and campus expansion were in direct response to developing needed healthcare programs to prepare the next generation of healthcare providers in the West, and beyond. At the same time, RUHS has also met community healthcare needs in expansion of its clinical footprint in establishment of Dental Clinics in UT and NV , offering affordable, high-quality dental care, the Orthodontic Clinic in NV, Roseman Medical Group, providing primary and specialty care, and through its partnership with Cure For the Kids Foundation, which is the community leader in the research and treatment of childhood cancer and other catastrophic childhood diseases.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
College of Pharmacy
Our three year Accelerated PharmD program is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education and has been since January 2004. We seek to provide the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to build a career as a pharmacist. We’ve designed our three-year Doctor of Pharmacy program to give students an edge when it comes to learning and professional opportunities. The quality of education students receive at Roseman University is reflected in our graduates NAPLEX (North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination) board exam pass rates. Our learning model insists on mastery built with one core subject at a time. We use a block curriculum, which allows students to master a single topic before moving on to the next one while reinforcing learning year-round through these longitudinal blocks.
As part of the Roseman University Six-Point Mastery Learning Model®, we require each student to meet 90 percent or higher on subject assessments. This helps ensure graduates leave Roseman University of Health Sciences College of Pharmacy with more than just a pharmaceutical degree, but the needed preparation to start and build their career.
College of Nursing
The College offers an on-campus and hybrid Bachelor of Science in Nursing, a Veteran to Bachelor of Science in Nursing pathway and an online MSN/FNP Program.
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program is designed to prepare students for entry-level registered nurse positions in a variety of healthcare environments. Graduates will use critical thinking skills for effective problem solving, decision making, and independent judgment to provide culturally competent and developmentally appropriate care in the practice of nursing and to function as a member of a health care team.
The Master of Science in Nursing Family Nurse Practitioner (MSN/FNP) online graduate program focuses on expanding students’ knowledge further through practical primary care to patients of all ages. Courses cover such topics as pathophysiology, pharmacotherapeutics, family practice management, and didactic and clinical coursework in pediatric and adult-gerontology. In addition to education in the classroom, students must also complete a predetermined number of clinical hours. This course of study is beneficial to those who are looking for a professional career as a nurse practitioner.
College of Dental Medicine
The College of Dental Medicine offers the Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) program at our South Jordan, Utah campus, and the Advanced Education in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics (AEODO) residency in Henderson, NV and the Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) residency on both campuses.
Students and residents of the College of Dental Medicine benefit from state-of-the-art educational and clinical facilities, which feature the latest in computer and multimedia technology, and from our distinguished faculty, recruited from throughout the country.
The Roseman University of Health Sciences College of Dental Medicine DMD program’s mission is to improve the oral health of the public with special attention to the underserved people in the Intermountain West region by educating dentists, conducting educational and clinical research, and providing community-based health services and health care leadership.
MBA program
In this turbulent and unpredictable global business environment, career success depends upon many factors, including leadership skills and business knowledge. The mission of the MBA program is to prepare graduates to be competent business professionals, responsible leaders, entrepreneurial managers and effective communicators.
College of Medicine
The College of Medicine at Roseman University will produce the healthcare workforce of the future, developing clinically excellent, community based, socially accountable, humble, compassionate and inclusive physicians. This will be accomplished by innovative teaching, emphasizing not only clinical excellence, but also ethics, humility, empathy, critical and creative thinking, and real-world experience. Graduates of Roseman University College of Medicine will understand the complexities of communities and how the Social Determinants of Health impact both individual and population health. The communities we serve will be partners in our teaching and learning.
We will lead the State and region in creating technological strategies to achieve academic excellence and advance effective and inclusive health delivery systems. We will develop and lead the Roseman Center for Population Health (eventually offering an MPH) and invite other academic institutions as well as a wide representation of private and public partners to work together with us to address and reduce disparities in our region’s urban and rural communities.
Please note that because the college is currently pursuing accreditation from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME), only limited information regarding the program can currently be shared. The college cannot publish admission requirements, nor consider any applicants to the program at this time.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Roseman's six operational areas come directly from its Mission:
SIX OPERATIONAL AREAS
• Educating current and future generations of health professionals

• Providing Patient Care
• Pursuing complementary partnerships and affiliations

•Create more "on ramps" and opportunities to engage future students through all parts of the educational
journey
• Expand current programmatic offerings to meet industry and market demand
• Ensure our programs are current to keep pace with market forces and workforce demands
• Enable and increase student success so they may learn, earn, and serve their communities post-graduation.
• Support a culture of diversity and inclusion so that all students may succeed
• Redesign current academic programs to permit interprofessional education
• Become a model for innovative health professions education.
In order to expand our research capabilities, we must:
• Expand university infrastructure to support strategic growth in research capabilities and productivity
• Establish and expand research graduate programing
• Develop research-focused relationships with academic, industry, clinical, and government partners
• Enhance the scholarly reputation and visibility of Roseman University
In order to provide expanded patient care, we must:
• Establish a successful Academic Health System that becomes the gold standard for exceptional patient care,
teaching and learning
• Establish a comprehensive clinical footprint that becomes the gold standard for exceptional patient care,
teaching and learning
In order to pursue complementary partnerships and affiliations, we must:
• Develop a new schema of interrelated partners that strengthen institutional capabilities, diversifies revenue
sources and solidifies our competitive position
In order to create an environment that fosters internal and external collaboration, we must:
•Focus on most optimal, high-quality Culture Building, Community Engagement, and Philanthropic initiatives
that further drive internal and external collaboration and partnership
• More deeply root Roseman into the communities it serves
• Broaden and deepen public awareness and understanding of Roseman
In order to support responsible fiscal management, we must:

• Increase institutional efficiency with highly efficient workforce with optimal mix of talent, skills and
experience to support growth
• Explore entrepreneurial opportunities
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Faculty, staff, students and Board of Trustees members have been identified to both lead and participate in twelve Strategic Planning Initiatives/Workgroups that report out quarterly against specific goals and metrics.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
The Roseman University of Health Sciences 2020 Strategic Plan is in its first phase of initial implementation.
That said, the University relies on institutional data to assess more broadly if it is meeting its goals.
