We Are Medicine

Prepare Leaders

THE BEST STUDENTS IN THE WORLD COME TO OUR CAMPUS, and they go on to set the standards of excellence in clinical care, research, and education. We are preparing tomorrow’s leaders. As one of the best medical schools in the world, we need financial support to offer access to students as diverse as the patients they will affect. We also need scholarships to ensure that students can focus as much on where they can have the most impact as they do on paying off educational debt.

In addition, Penn is reshaping the educational experience in the classrooms by moving to team-based approaches, using new simulation technologies, employing actors and actresses to play out physician-patient interactions, and linking students with patients to gain long-term perspectives on the patient’s view of treatment. We are working with diverse schools at Penn to integrate knowledge and develop broader solutions to health and societal challenges, expanding students’ interdisciplinary collaboration. Making History: The Campaign for Penn will allow us to increase support for our medical students and will give us new resources for curricular innovation.

Our $200 million campaign goal to prepare tomorrow’s leaders will keep Penn Medicine competitive by increasing scholarship support, supporting innovative programs, and creating a new medical education space.
