Overview

Here, you will learn from renowned
teachers, clinicians, and researchers
who are transforming medicine
in practice and in policy. Here, you will start
interacting with patients week one, Year
One. Here, you will gain hands-on clinical
experience in a program uniquely designed
to expose you to a broad array of patient
populations and training
sites, from
Dartmouth's own state-of- the-art medical
center to urban hospitals to health clinics
in Africa.

Here, you have the flexibility to explore your calling, whether you are headed for a career in medical research and teaching, subspecialty practice, primary care, or healthcare policy. Here, you will learn with your head and your heart and set a course for lifelong learning. And from here—having studied both the science and the art of medicine at a school with a two-hundred year history of innovation—you can go anywhere. Because at Dartmouth Medical School, the nation's fourth oldest, there are no barriers to becoming the physician, the scientist, and the person you want to be. There are only opportunities.

Here, you will be a valued member of a medical community where collaboration is the norm with students, with faculty, with patients, and across disciplines. Here, you will share a beautiful Ivy League campus with Dartmouth College and its professional schools in business and engineering—the ideal environment for interdisciplinary innovation. Here, you will work hard but be encouraged to have a life outside medical school, to stay connected to family and friends, to serve your community, and to care for your own well-being.
