WHERE MEDICINE MEETS HUMANITY

The health of a person is inextricably linked to the health of the community. Medical providers and leaders are growing increasingly aware that effective health care extends beyond the clinical setting and must engage the community as a whole. The Master of Science in Community Engaged Medicine is a 12-month graduate program that puts students into the field to learn about health disparities firsthand, leading to an advanced understanding of biomedical science and population health and all the social and biological factors that can affect health.
