The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (or LECOM) is a private, graduate school of medicine and pharmacy and is currently the largest medical college in the country. Founded in 1992 in Erie, Pennsylvania., LECOM is a member of the Millcreek Health System in partnership with Millcreek Geriatric Education and Care Center, and physician offices of Medical Associates of Erie. In 2004 LECOM opened a branch campus in Bradenton, Florida, and in 2009 opened a new satellite campus in Greensburg at the site of Seton Hill University. LECOM grants the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine and the Doctor of Pharmacy degrees, and also maintains a Post Baccalaureate Program, providing educational opportunities for students who need to enhance their basic science credentials for admission to medical or pharmacy school. The Medical School has three learning pathways: a traditional Lecture Discussion Program, a Problem Based Learning Program, and an independent study program. The Erie campus offers all three pathways, while the Bradenton and Greensburg campuses are solely Problem Based Learning.
