Real-World Coursework
You Can Take from Class to Career
Online learning with Pima Medical Institute goes beyond the basics. The projects you complete in class are based on real-life scenarios and designed to help you succeed not just in class, but in your career.
Beyond the Textbook
Through interactive activities, engaging videos, instructor experience and more, we create a dynamic environment where students don’t just complete tasks—they apply what they learn.
Capstone Projects
Some of our online degree programs include a Professional Capstone during the final semester, which applies concepts learned in prior semesters into a final project. Students often choose a topic that’s relevant to their current role or company, and use this project as a way to propose and enact change within their organization.
“I often find when we are discussing a problem at work, I am able to refer to an assignment I did about that very issue. My work life used to help with my schoolwork and now my schoolwork is helping with my work life.”
– William H. (Online Graduate)

“The school’s support system, including advisors, financial aid and instructors, made it an easy choice. When things got really tough and I wanted to quit, the program director encouraged me to keep going. All of my instructors were understanding and compassionate and I am so grateful they pushed me to finish.”
