Duquesne University College of Osteopathic Medicine (DUQCOM) is the medical school of Duquesne University in Pittsburgh. Founded in 2024, DUQCOM grants the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) academic degree.[1] DUQCOM holds pre-accreditation status with the American Osteopathic Association's Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation (COCA).

DUQCOM was established in 2024.[2] The inaugural class started courses in 2024.[3] In 2025, the medical school received a donation, which prompted the university to change the name of the medical school to "Nasuti College of Osteopathic Medicine."[4] At the time, the donation was the second largest donation in the university's history.[5]

Campus

The medical school will be housed in an 80,000 square foot building,[1] located in Uptown Pittsburgh.[6] The projected cost of the building was 150 million.[4] The campus includes a simulation hospital, with a 3-bed emergency department, an intensive care unit, an operating room, a labor and delivery room, an ultrasound lab, and 12 outpatient exam rooms.[7]
