The Office of Medical Student Education is here to serve students and facilitate the attainment of a high-quality undergraduate medical education. Personnel in the office look forward to helping students with their academic and career counseling needs and making sure that the overall educational experience runs smoothly and efficiently. We enjoy working with students, so do not hesitate to stop by with any questions you may have!

On the Medical Student Education website you can find contact information, academic policies, curriculum information, and schedules. Be sure to read the spotlight features on our first-year ward experience and the Medical Simulation Center web pages.

Even before the classes begin, all first year students enter the ward experience.

The Medical Simulation Center is a training and feedback center in which learners practice tasks and processes in lifelike circumstances using simulation mannequins.
