Our Purpose
Intentionally designed to produce doctors who are committed to serving diverse communities. Grounded in evidence, our program reflects advancements and best practices in medical education and will better prepare our students in their role as a physician working with dynamic, inter-professional teams.
Our holistic admissions philosophy and student support systems widen the pathway for aspiring physicians, and our hands-on from the start approach produces doctors who have the practical knowledge and skills to make a positive impact early in their careers.
We’re educating healthcare professionals who bring energy and diverse perspectives to healing the world.
