LEONARD M. MILLER SCHOOL OF MEDICINE
(Redirected from Miller School of Medicine)
The 'Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine' is the school of medical education at the University of Miami (UM). The school is located in Miami, Florida, northwest of Downtown Miami. Jackson Memorial Hospital serves as its major teaching facility. One of the world's leading centers for research into neurological injuries, The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, is associated with the school.
In 2004, in partnership with Florida Atlantic University (FAU), the Miller School of Medicine established a regional campus at FAU in Boca Raton, Florida. Known as the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine at Florida Atlantic University (UMMSM at FAU), the program enables students to complete all 4 years of the medical curriculum at FAU in Boca Raton.[1]
In late 2006, it was announced that FAU and Boca Raton Community Hospital approved an agreement between the two institutions to construct a hospital on the grounds of FAU's Boca Raton campus. This new facility will serve as the primary teaching hospital for UM's regional campus of the Miller School at FAU. Construction of a 530-bed teaching hospital is expected to begin in 2008 with completion by 2011.
In December of 2004, the University of Miami School of Medicine received a $100 million donation from the family of the late businessman, Leonard M. Miller, who made his fortunes in home construction in what eventually became the Lennar Corporation. It was the single-largest donation in University of Miami history and the second-largest gift ever given to a university in the state of Florida (behind only the $220 million donated by Thomas Monaghan to found Ave Maria University in Naples, Florida). The University renamed the school in Miller's honor after the historic donation.
The UM Department of Community Service at the School of Medicine provides various free medical services in the Miami community.
