Years ahead of their time, the leaders of the University realized the value of educating interdisciplinary healthcare teams together for the good of all. The idea was simple: by learning together, medical school students and students of other healthcare professions would come to respect each others' contributions and work together effectively for the well-being of the patient.

The University was designed to build teams of health professionals and bring together diagnostic, supportive, and investigative functions of medicine in one setting.
