Our Community
Our medical students are both challenged and nurtured in diverse University and clinical environments by faculty devoted to excellence in teaching, research, and care.
The state of Minnesota offers an outstanding quality of life, as do its cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Duluth.

Duluth , with a population of 87,000, has an eclectic downtown on the north shore of Lake Superior and myriad outdoor opportunities.
