History
editOf all the schools at the medical center,[1] the last organized chronologically was the School of Health Related Professions[2][3]. However, some of its components pre-dated its formation – one by more than 45 years. Courses in medical technology, for example, were offered by the faculty of the School of Medicine as early as 1924. In 1936 the one-year course was accredited by the American Society for Clinical Pathologists but was not listed as a "school" until 1938. Two years later the first director was appointed, E. Lloyd Wilbur[3][4]. In 1947 a program was inaugurated whereby students with 90 semester hours elsewhere could complete the course and receive a B.S. in Medical Technology[5]. The School of Medicine also organized a one-year "Course in X-Ray Technic" early in 1948[6]. The first director, apparently, was Isadore Meschan[7]. Almost 20 years passed before another such "school" was established – the School of Cytotechnology. It was organized in 1967 and directed by William E. Jacques, the head of the Department of Pathology[8]. That year also saw the formation of the School of Dental Hygiene[9]. Unlike the others, this program was "free standing", that is, separate and apart from the Medical School.
The existence of at least four training schools for health professionals caused the administration of the medical center to give some thought to a more efficient organization. For this reasons the University trustees in June 1971 approved the organization of a School of Health Related Professions[3]. In 1972 Tip C. Nelms was appointed dean of the School[3][10]. As of 1977 Dean Nelms had organized 11 departments: Biomedical Instrumentation, Dental Hygiene, Dietics and Nutrition, Emergency Care, Health Care Administration, Medical Technology, Operating Room Technology, Nuclear Medicine Technology, Radiologic Technology, Respiratory Therapy, and Communicative Disorders [3][11].
In May 1973, Vice-President James L. Dennis outlined a model of organization that progressed upward from the department administered by a chairman, to a division directed by an associate dean, to a college headed by a dean, and to a University campus administered by a "chancellor"[12]. This scheme of organization was adopted in 1975 and denominated "School of Health Related Professions" as "College of Health Related Professions" [3].
In 1981, the dean's office and the Department of Dental Hygiene were moved from an off-campus location in the University Tower building to the first floor of the Shorey Building on campus[3].
In the summer of 1982, Ronald H. Winters, PhD, arrived as the new dean[13] and began affiliations with Area Health Education Centers Program which extended the reach and diversified the educational opportunities for students[14][15].
In 2009 the College of Health Related Professions got a new home. Its 21 academic programs moved to newly renovated buildings, once part of the state hospital, next to the UAMS campus.
In 2011 UAMS has announced that Douglas L. Murphy, PhD has been named dean of the College of Health Related Professions[16]. When Douglas Murphy became the College’s third Dean in 2011[17], the College had a common home for the first time in its existence[18].
On July 1, 2012 the College of Health Related Professions became the College of Health Professions, more reflective of national trends[19]
Since the retirement of Douglas L. Murphy, PhD, on Dec. 31, 2017, Susan Long, EdD had been serving as interim dean. She has been named dean of the College of Health Professions at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in June, 2018[20]
