Physician’s Assistant Program

Physician's Assistant Program

Summary

Information about obtaining a degree to become a Physician's Assistant.

Overview

A-B Tech does not offer a Physician's Assistant program. This is usually a two-year graduate degree program offered to students who already have a Bachelor's Degree.  More information about Physician's Assistant programs can be found from the American Academy of Physician Assistant's website, aapa.org.

If you would like to start at A-B Tech and work towards obtaining a Bachelor's Degree and eventually a graduate degree to become a physician's assistant, an Associate in Science (A.S.) degree at A-B Tech may be a good place to start. This program prepares students to transfer from A-B Tech to a college or university that offers four-year degree programs. 

More information about our Transfer Programs (including the Pre-Physicians Assistant Pathway) can be found on our website.
