Our forthcoming additional location will reside on the Florida Tech campus, located on Florida’s eastern Space Coast just 70 miles south of Orlando.

Burrell College is located in Las Cruces, New Mexico on the campus of New Mexico State University and, if approved by all appropriate entities, includes a forthcoming additional location in Melbourne, Florida on the campus of Florida Institute of Technology.  The College has been granted permission by the Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation (COCA) to recruit to the Florida campus.  Other required approvals could be received as soon as the late summer of 2023.

About the Florida Campus:

The Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine (“the College”), founded in 2013, is in Las Cruces, New Mexico, and is accredited by Commission on Osteopathic Accreditation (COCA). The College’s proposed additional location in Melbourne, Florida, is a four-year osteopathic medical school with 100 students per class. The first class, subject to approval by the COCA, is scheduled for a July 2024 matriculation. Like its campus in Las Cruces, New Mexico, which has an affiliation with New Mexico State University, the proposed Melbourne location will reside on the campus of Florida Tech University, a private STEM-focused university. For the past three years, the College has operated a regional academic center in Florida for clinical clerkship rotations. Based on the success of these rotations, and the support of the medical community and community stakeholders, the College’s board of trustees decided to pursue the new four-year campus in Florida.

Melbourne, Florida:

The City of Melbourne lies along the Indian River Lagoon, a vast estuary loved by boaters, anglers, and those who just enjoy its quiet beauty. On the other side of the river, a portion of the city lies on a barrier island with many beach parks offering even more fun in the sun. Melbourne is just south of Cape Canaveral — home to the Kennedy Space Center and Port Canaveral. You can watch launches from almost any point in the city or take a short drive up to the space center to get close to the action. While up there, you can visit Port Canaveral — an active shipping port with daily departures of cruise ships and deep-sea fishing boats. Melbourne has an international airport and is located next to a major interstate with easy access to Orlando and the attractions, Kennedy Space Center, and points beyond. Enjoy the benefits of Central Florida’s ideal coastal climate — mild winters and a lush blooming landscape year-round. Melbourne averages 242 sunny days annually with extremely mild winter seasons between 50° - 70° (F).

Note: Applicants must currently be authorized to lawfully work in the United States on a full-time basis.

The review of CVs is scheduled to begin immediately. Salary is commensurate with rank.
