Community Connections

Armstrong Atlantic State University is the second largest designated center for health professions education in the state of Georgia. Located in the heart of Savannah, AASU's programs in the Department of Nursing address area and regional health care needs. Our students practice in area health care systems such as Memorial Health University Medical Center and St. Joseph's/Candler Health System, as well as many diverse community settings.

The Community:
Savannah, Georgia's First City, is a historic city with a revered past, a vibrant present and an exciting future. Savannah has an atmosphere and charm fostered by residents who have cherished and preserved its past. Our love of history is embodied in the beautifully restored homes, churches and public buildings that grace the city's unique, tree-filled squares, and that affection has given rise to a tourism industry that's boomed dramatically since the mid-90s.
