PROVEN SUCCESS

Our students earn
top honors in major
simulation competitions.

The Simulation Medicine Program immerses students in dynamic clinical environments that challenge decision-making, adaptability, and patient care skills. By combining advanced simulation tools with collaborative training, the program prepares future physicians to perform with confidence in real clinical settings.

ACOM students have achieved remarkable success, earning six national titles in the American Medical Student Association (AMSA) Simulation Competition and three international titles. These accomplishments underscore the strength of our Simulation Medicine Program, which immerses students in realistic, high-pressure clinical scenarios that mirror real-world challenges. Through rigorous training and preparation, ACOM student teams consistently demonstrate excellence, securing top honors and setting a benchmark for quality in medical education.
