The Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine (BCOM) at New Mexico State University is the only medical colleges in the United States with a mission focused on healthcare in the Southwestern United States and Northern Mexico. Although BCOM is a private and free-standing college that is not a part of New Mexico State University (NMSU), it is very closely affiliated with NMSU and our students enjoy the student life and campus community benefits that come with a major public research university.
