The College hosted 32 University of Alabama School of Medicine students April 28 and 29 who will complete their third and fourth years of medical school in Tuscaloosa.
In its role as a regional campus for the School of Medicine, the College provides clinical education for medical students that is oriented toward primary care but that also provides exposure to and experience in other specialties. In its role as a college on The University of Alabama campus, the College operates one of the oldest and largest family medicine residencies in the country and the multi-specialty University Medical Center, and conducts research focused on rural and community health.
During the orientation in Tuscaloosa, medical students learned about the College’s clerkships, participated in CPR training and toured DCH Regional Medical Center.
Medical students complete the first two years of basic sciences courses at the School of Medicine’s main campus in Birmingham, and their third and fourth years at either Birmingham or one of the school’s regional campuses in Tuscaloosa, Huntsville and Montgomery.
