Overview

The key to developing outstanding physician-scientists is a program that explicitly provides the support and guidance needed by students who pursue these two rigorous curricula.

Key Features

The Medicine program from Dartmouth College provides flexibility to allow each student to meet her/his individual needs and to take advantage of the strengths of an institution with a long history of academic excellence.

The program functions within the collegial and supportive environment of Geisel School of Medicine and Dartmouth College.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

The profession of medicine has entered a challenging and exciting period as the health care system undergoes revolutionary refocus and reorganization. There is increased need for leaders who can use powerful, newly developed technical and conceptual tools to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness.

One of the most effective ways to provide leadership on these issues and to advance our knowledge of health care and the human condition is through the MD-PhD Program. The MD-PhD Program combines systematic and rigorous research preparation (the PhD degree) with excellent clinical education emphasizing the societal aspects of medicine (the MD degree).
