Historical NoteReturn to Top
This collection attempts to trace the many permutations of the education of health professionals in Oregon from its inception at Willamette University's Medical Department (WUMD,1867). It chronicles the beginnings of the University of Oregon Medical School (UOMS,1887); of dental education with the merger of the North Pacific Dental College (NPDC) and the UO College of Dentistry (1900, keeping name NPDC); and of nursing education (1919). It also follows the physical evolution from isolated buildings in town to the purchase of property on Marquam Hill in Portland and the gradual movement of offices and personnel there. The continuing construction programs are noted as well, such as the Multnomah County Hospital (1921); Outpatient Clinic (1925); Doernbecher Children's Clinic (1926); and the Nursing Residence Hall (1927). This is continued through the creation of the University of Oregon Health Sciences Center (UOHSC,1974-1981); the Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU, 1981-2001); and Oregon Health & Science University (OH&SU, 2001-). At present the institution has three schools (medical, dental, nursing). There are (2013) five major research units: Biomedical Information & Communication Center (BICC), the Center for Research in Occupational Medicine and Environmental Toxicology (CROET), the Oregon Clinical and Translational Institute (OCTRI), the Neurological Sciences Institute (NSI), and the Vollum Institute for Advanced Biomedical Research (VIABR) ). There are also four clinical units (University Hospitals & Clinics; Doernbecher's Childrens' Hospital (DCH); the Child Development and Rehabilitation Center (CDRC); and the Dental clinics.
