ϰϲͼ Master of Science in Anesthesia (MSA) Program

Enter a Student. Emerge an Anesthesia Professional.

The Master of Science in Anesthesia (MSA) Program provides high quality education through challenging curriculum and comprehensive clinical teaching. We prepare safe and competent providers for the surgical patient.

ϰϲͼ's MSA program is the first in the state, and one of only 20 nationwide, to train anesthesiologist assistants, who will work under the direction of leading physician anesthesiologists after graduation. Our curriculum immerses students in all areas of anesthesia knowledge throughout the 28-month program, transforming you into an expert clinician. Based at ϰϲͼ's Milwaukee campus, the MSA program at ϰϲͼ teaches to the highest level of professionalism. As part of ϰϲͼ's Department of Anesthesiology, our students learn at top academic medical centers.

My expectations for the MSA program have not only been met, but also exceeded since I started the program. Working through cases as a group in the STAR Center helps us to gain confidence and a good understanding of what we need to do in a surgery.
