We are committed to educating a culturally and linguistically diverse generation of physicians and other health professionals. Graduates will have the knowledge, skills, values, and competence to pursue career options in medicine, deliver high quality care, and conduct clinical research. The school’s special interest is centered on community health, conducting research on translational community medicine, and on graduating physicians who are responsive to the health needs of underserved and medically vulnerable populations.
Vision
To hold a leadership position among the purveyors of quality education in community medicine and primary care to support and strengthen the efforts of state and local governments in improving the health conditions and access to care to urban and rural communities.
