Education at Minnesota
Our Medical School offers future physicians great opportunities:
- Opportunities to shape one's education through the Flexible M.D. program, to focus on research, international health, underserved communities, or other interests.
- Opportunities to pursue a career in specialty care or primary care—our school was among the top 10 in graduating Family Medicine physicians for the last three years.
- Opportunities for qualified students to learn from physicians and teams in small towns in the Rural Physician Associate Program.
- Opportunities to learn from excellent teachers and mentors in a variety of learning situations and settings.
- Opportunities to participate in and hear about the latest in health research.
- Opportunities to learn about and have experience in the health care reform that is happening.
"We are committed to preparing the next generation of physicians to improve the health of communities, to discover and deliver new treatments and cures, and to care for Minnesota patients and families," says Medical School Dean Frank B. Cerra.
Even while delivering top-notch educational opportunities, we are transforming our education by basing it on student achievement of competencies. These initiatives take advantage of the skills of our self-directed, tech-savvy learners while they engage many of our talented faculty. At the University of Minnesota Medical School, we are moving ahead toward a vision of excellence.
