Students in HSTM collaborate with professors on research projects, and many students publish before they graduate. Student research projects have been recognized by receiving grants from the Appalachian College Association or participation in the Institutional Development Award Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence program. Students also have the opportunity to participate in the annual Undergraduate Research Day at the state capitol, which gives legislators and West Virginia institutions the chance to interact with students and witness how they are revolutionizing the future. Students who walk the halls of Kemper-Redd set high standards, as 98% of students eligible for medical school are accepted into graduate or professional programs, including medical, pharmacy, and dental schools.

Wilcox Chapel, built in 1976, is one of the most striking buildings on campus. Inside, it features a beautiful wood ceiling, stained glass window, and a quaint overlook of downtown Philippi. Alderson Broaddus is affiliated with the American Baptist Church, but offers non-denominational chapel services every Thursday at 11:00 a.m. for our diverse student body. Wilcox Chapel is a multipurpose complex that houses the College of Education and hosts various celebrations, including opening, honors, and nursing convocations and baccalaureate. Outside Wilcox, the Dr. Jean Cunningham Plaza features the original cross that once stood high upon AB’s iconic bell tower and serves as a beacon to the University’s mission and heritage as a faith-based institution.
Burbick Hall is the first stop for any campus tour, as it is home to the Welcome Center and the Office of Admissions. Also located on the 1st floor is the Registrar’s Office.

Throughout the year, hundreds of families pass through Burbick Hall to learn what AB has to offer.
The back deck of Burbick Hall overlooks the picturesque town of Philippi. Philippi is known as the site of the first land battle of the Civil War, although it is referred to as a Skirmish rather than a battle. AB’s mascot, Skirmish the Battler, commemorates that epic battle in history on Battle Hill where campus stands today.
The Campus Center is a central hub for AB students. The Campus Center houses Heiner Hall, the main dining location. Heiner offers students a variety of food stations, some of which are made-to-order. Other dining options include the on-campus restaurant, E.J. & Emma’s at the Cave; Jazzman’s Bakery and Coffee Shop; and the SubConnection. The Campus Center is a true “one-stop-shop” tailored to meet our students’ needs. The Campus Center houses the AB Bookstore, Post Office, Fitness Center, and the Office of Student Affairs.
Pickett Library and Funkhouser Auditorium were added to the campus in 1957.

Withers-Brandon Hall, known to most as “W-B,” is home to the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, which includes programs in criminal justice; integrated marketing communication; journalism and professional writing; legal studies; mass communication; psychology; public relations; and religion and philosophy.

Student members of the business club, the Future Business Leaders of America-Phi Beta Lambda (PBL), have won state-wide and national business competitions and recognitions.

On the ground floor of the Coliseum, you will find a weight room and the athletic training facility used to treat and care for our student-athletes.
The Coliseum plays an essential role in the lives of all students. During commencement, students walk through the traditional procession of professors, receiving congratulations, en route to receive their diploma.

The stadium features double-deck home side seating, luxury boxes, and concessions. Locker rooms, equipment rooms, and an on-site athletic training facility can be found below the visitors’ section.
Whitescarver Hall, built in 1912, is the oldest building on campus and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Whitescarver houses a state-of-the-art robot simulator laboratory, where students can use the latest tools in health science instruction. In the SIM lab, nursing and physician assistant studies students can apply the knowledge they learn in the classroom in a highly realistic healthcare environment by diagnosing and treating simulated human patients that talk, breathe, respond to medication, and carry out other human functions. In addition to the SIM lab, Whitescarver is also home to exercise science classes, learning laboratories, and space for high and low fidelity simulators and models.
AB has small-town charm with big-city connections. Our beautiful mountaintop campus is nestled in a quiet setting—far from distractions, but not too far from big-city adventures.
Over 8,000 students have called AB their “hilltop home.” Our family of alumni provides opportunities for networking, internships, and even job placement. AB prepares students to excel in the working world with tools to fulfill their roles in a diverse society.

Alderson Broaddus University has a history of academic innovation in the health sciences, establishing the nation’s first baccalaureate physician assistant program of its kind in 1968 and the state’s first four-year nursing program in 1945. To accommodate these revolutionary programs, Myers Hall of Health Sciences was constructed in 1973. Myers also houses the College of Medical Science, which is home to both the anatomy and the physician assistant studies master’s programs. Myers has both lecture classrooms and clinical skills laboratories for hands-on learning. On the ground floor, professional students study the human body in the state-of-the-art gross anatomy laboratory by combining virtual and practical experience. Myers also has a student lounge for study groups.
