We look forward to welcoming Dr. Joshua Nosanchuk to the Middle Michigan area as the newly announced Dean of the Covenant Healthcare College of Medicine at Central Michigan University.

Central Michigan University has named Dr. Joshua Nosanchuk as the next dean of the Covenant HealthCare College of Medicine, bringing more than three decades of experience in medical education to the role.

"We are thrilled about the exciting, extensive medical education experience and leadership Dr. Joshua Nosanchuk will bring to CMU," Provost Paula Lancaster said in a press release.

Nosanchuk, who will begin July 1, said he sees "tremendous opportunities" to expand medical education programs, research activity and health care access across Michigan. He also acknowledged the college's planned move to Saginaw that was announced in July of 2024.⁠

"The shift of the college to Saginaw will be a challenge, yet from it will come new opportunities to engage students in clinical experiences earlier and more often," he said in the press release.
