Samuel Merritt University is recognized as a premier health sciences institution, with faculty and staff committed to preparing the next generation of healthcare professionals.
What Sets SMU Apart
SMU has built its reputation on rigorous health sciences education and a strong connection to healthcare practice. Students learn from expert faculty, including professionals who continue to practice in their fields, within an inclusive environment that emphasizes active, experiential learning.
Faculty and students are partners in the learning process. Clinical experience and interprofessional education help students apply what they learn and develop the judgment they’ll need in practice. Across the university, staff support that education by coordinating clinical experiences and maintaining the resources and learning environments that make it possible.
Together, faculty and staff help prepare graduates to practice with expertise and meet the needs of the people and communities they serve.
