From addressing local public health issues to contributing to global health solutions, we equip our students with the knowledge, skills, and mindset to excel as leaders in the ever-changing landscape of medicine.
The heart of our department lies in our collaborative spirit—whether it is designing impactful outreach programs, conducting high-impact research, or empowering communities through education. Our experienced faculty is dedicated to mentoring students to think beyond the stethoscope and embrace the social dimensions of health.
