In honor of the 10th Pitt Day of Giving, we invite our community to help Pitt-Johnstown reach 100 new donors by midnight Tuesday, February 24.

A first gift of $10 to the area of your choice makes a meaningful impact for our students and campus.

Early gifts count toward Pitt-Johnstown’s totals and help build momentum leading up to the event.

Way to go, Alijah!

Our students get some awesome learning experiences during their internships!

As part of their summer internship at Conemaugh Memorial Medical Center, Alijah Gibson (University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown) and Margaret Orr (Indiana University of Pennsylvania) are gaining exposure to healthcare from a variety of perspectives, from administration to the operating room. 📃🩺

Recently, they had the unique opportunity to observe Richard Goodrich, DO, orthopedic surgeon, perform knee and hip replacements using the advanced Mako robotic arm.
