Career Advising

The Office of Student Affairs focuses on introducing medical students to various career planning mechanisms available to them. Students will find information about specialty interest groups and events, faculty and physician mentors, free campus, community and online resources, volunteer and employment opportunities, and more on this site. Students will also be able to take advantage of opportunities to discuss and ask questions related to such matters as: "how to choose electives or how to prepare a CV and personal statement; what to expect during residency interviews and basically, and how to survive the whole Match process.

We aim to ensure that all medical students have a solid plan for pursuing their career choice by the time they reach their fourth year. From getting advice on choosing electives and arranging for away rotations to dealing with the deadlines for the Match, the journey one must follow to reach one's goal becomes much less stressful and clearer when someone is lighting the way. Have questions or concerns, or need someone to help you plan? Let's talk.
