Are there opportunities for students to design, conduct, and publish their own research?
Full details are available about Medical Student Research Opportunities on the Office of Research web site. Several programs are available for medical students to do research. One program consists of opportunities for a research project in the summer after the first year of medical school. This program/project may be extended into free time in the post-clerkship period of years three and four. Credit for up to three months of elective time spent on the project in year four will be awarded subject to approval by the Electives Committee and completion of an acceptable report to the Office for Research.
