About the School
TUSPM was opened in September of 1963 as the Pennsylvania College of Podiatric Medicine (PCPM). After Temple's original medical school closed in 1960, several members of its faculty obtained a charter from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to open a new podiatry school. PCPM existed in rented facilities for its first few years, and moved into its own center at 8th and Pine streets in 1965. When the current campus opened in 1973, it was the first facility ever developed specifically for podiatric use. In addition to classrooms and labs, the complex included student housing and a medical clinic, now known as the Foot and Ankle Institute. PCPM merged with Temple in July of 1998. According to James E. Bates, DPM, the longtime president of PCPM, the School was always thought of as the best college for podiatric medicine. Our students are leaders all over the country, we have always had a very strong clinic, and we maintain international relations with podiatrists all over the world.
