Our academic program is meticulously structured to ensure students receive a holistic and diverse clinical training experience. We offer an expansive range of core and elective rotations across various clinical affiliate sites, primarily located in Chicago for core rotations and extending into the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) for elective experiences. Below is a detailed overview of the clinical education opportunities available to our students.
Chicago's Medical Hub: Chicago boasts a vibrant medical community and is home to some of the nation's most prestigious hospitals and clinics. This city serves as the central hub for our core clinical rotations, providing students with exposure to a wide array of medical disciplines in highly regarded medical institutions.
Expanding Clinical Perspectives: Elective rotations allow students to explore specialized medical fields beyond the core requirements, fostering a tailored educational experience that aligns with individual career goals. Students are required to complete a total of 24 weeks in elective subjects, with each elective lasting at least one week.
Mentorship and Guidance: All rotations, core and elective, are supported by a dedicated team of faculty and seasoned clinicians who provide continuous mentorship. Our clinical training is enhanced by regular feedback sessions, practical assessments, and supportive academic resources to ensure comprehensive learning.
Affiliate Sites: Our chosen clinical affiliate sites are recognized for their commitment to medical education and their capacity to offer a rich, supportive, and diverse training environment.
The Clinical Rotations program at our institution is integral to the professional and personal development of our medical students. By offering diverse and comprehensive training opportunities in both Chicago and the GTA, including a wide array of electives and the addition of Family Practice to core rotations, we prepare our students for successful and fulfilling careers in the medical field. This robust clinical exposure ensures our graduates are not only competent in their medical knowledge and skills but are also well-prepared to handle the challenges of healthcare today and in the future.
