If you are a student or considering entering the University of Minnesota Medical School, we are committed to preparing you for the best of all professions.
If you are a faculty member or considering becoming one of our outstanding researchers and physicians, we offer you the opportunity to participate in a rich environment and in the scientific revolutions of this new century.
If you are a patient in need of care, our faculty physicians will provide you with the best treatments and support available.
Our Medical School is thriving in the midst of exciting changes. The revolution in molecular medicine, genomics, and proteomics will have profound effects on how patients are diagnosed and treated. Digital technology also is transforming medicine. And changes in health care delivery systems are significantly impacting the way medicine is practiced.
Our Medical School embraces these shifts, anticipates future changes, and holds fast to those core values in medicine that will not change—compassion, understanding, and commitment.
Our Medical School is one of the top medical schools in the United States. With our diverse curriculum, we address health and wellness as well as respect for the individuality of each patient.
Our goal is to train doctors who understand and practice the science and technology of medicine and treat each patient as the unique individuals they are. We value partnership with patients and strive for the highest quality in how we practice medicine.
Welcome again to the University of Minnesota Medical School.
