What's New ?

The concept of excellence in education at MSUCOM is a lot like
breathing. It’s so pervasive we tend not to think about it.
But that concept is also as vital to the survival of our college
as oxygen is to our bodies. When our educational programs are healthy,
they nurture and invigorate all that we do – research, clinical
care, community service, administration and more.
|
College faculty, staff and students all teach –
in a kaleidoscope of educational settings and opportunities. Though
our primary emphasis is to prepare 500-plus osteopathic students to
become excellent physicians, we also teach:
- Nearly 1,000 interns and residents in our Statewide Campus System,
including those in family medicine, internal medicine, obstetrics
and gynecological surgery, general surgery, orthopedic surgery
and emergency medicine
- Continuing medical education courses for more than 1,000 health
care providers each year
- A cadre of elite D.O./Ph.D. joint-degree students in our Medical
Scientist Training Program, educating physician-scientists for
the profession
- Postdoctoral fellows in both clinical specialty areas and research
- Undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students in our basic science
departments
- Health promotion for children and adults in schools and community
settings in the U.S. and abroad
- High school students in our OsteoCHAMPS program in a number
of Michigan cities
- MSU undergraduates in our Osteopathic Medical Scholars program
and a variety of for-credit classes
- MSU Evening College through our Mini Medical School
Continuing and enhancing this commitment to educational excellence
is the primary goal for MSUCOM. This issue of Communiqué
will introduce you to some of the faculty, students, staff and
others who make these programs work so well that it seems as easy
as breathing. Thanks to each of you for your contribution to ensure
a future of educational excellence for the osteopathic profession!
