elcome to the UND School of Medicine and Health Sciences, and to the profession of medicine in the 21st century. We are a school on the cutting edge of medical education and biomedical research. It is an exciting place to learn about medicine. Our culture and our practices encourage student participation as a central part of the educational process.

 
A medical degree from UNDSMHS prepares you for the issues you will encounter in a challenging medical career, as we enter a new century of globalization and information technology. At this core however, we believe in preparing caring physicians, and the way we treat our students influences the way they will treat their patients.

Our school is small, with only 62 students per class. I assure you that many other members of the medical school community (students, faculty and staff) are as eager as I am to meet you. You can expect a friendly and enthusiastic greeting as you arrive here. You will receive hands-on, individualized instruction by a faculty committed to excellence in your education.

The faculty and administration have taken major steps to make this a learning organization, and we care deeply about continually improving our curriculum, programs and facilities. We have just recently completed construction of state-of-the-art classrooms, equipped with new technology. We also have an ultra-modern clinical education facility to further our standardized-patient learning activities.

Again, on behalf of everyone at the UND medical school, I am delighted to welcome you to the campus and to your new life as a medical student.

Sincerely,
