Career Mentors Program

Faculty mentors, called Career Mentors, are available to help you explore career options when choosing which electives to take at the end of your third year and in your fourth year.

These mentors have been identified by clinical department chairs and section chiefs as faculty members who are interested in advising students about career choices in their area of interest. They are kept informed about commonly asked questions and meet periodically to discuss mentorship issues. 

Career Mentors are active in their fields. This makes them an excellent source of information, but it can also mean that it may take time to get an appointment. We recommend you get started early and that you be persistent. An updated list of Career Mentors who are advisors with expertise and knowledge in specific areas and are available to assist students with their career decisions is available in the Office of Student Affairs. Among these Career Mentors are physician scientists who can advise about careers this tract in their fields.
