Prof.D in Medicine

The four-year Doctor of Medicine program at Tufts University School of Medicine blends demanding coursework with varied clinical training, preparing graduates to work as researchers and patient-centred physicians. Teaching uses small groups, case-based sessions and individual instruction. Students practise in an anatomy lab and a simulation center, and start meeting patients in clinical settings within the first weeks. Tufts Medical Center is the main teaching hospital, supplemented by more than fifteen other sites around Massachusetts. The Health Science Campus sits in Boston's Chinatown. Options include the Maine Track, dual degrees and research or global health programs. Graduates leave prepared for the next stage of training, whether in residency, research or direct patient care, and the school publishes class profile and match information for prospective applicants.
