Established in 2012, WMed offers a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree program, an MD-MBA dual degree program, an MD-PhD dual degree program and a Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences. WMed is a collaboration between Western Michigan University (WMU) and Kalamazoo's two teaching hospitals, Beacon Kalamazoo (formerly Ascension Borgess) and Bronson Healthcare.

The school conducts research and maintains residency affiliations with several clinics and medical institutions. It has reported a residency match rate of 99% or higher in recent years.
