Medical Student Career Advising
UTCOMLS's systematic approach to career advising spans all four years of medical school — from orientation to graduation — and is linked to critical junctures and transitions throughout your med school career. OSA is the hub for career and residency application counseling.
Services and resources include:
Student Leadership & Professional Development
Medical school student organizations are key to your personal, professional, and career development.
You have the opportunity to participate in and lead student chapters of national medical associations as well as organizations (clubs) related to various medical specialties, community service experiences, inter-professional health activities, and a variety of special interests.
In addition to organizations, you have the opportunity to apply to serve on College- and campus-wide committees with faculty, staff and community members.
