We tailor this integrated educational program to meet the goals of each physician-scientist-in-training. In addition to developing compassionate and skilled physicians and researchers, Loyola encourages its trainees to engage with local and global communities through service experiences. Positioned at the nexus of scientific research and clinical education, the Stritch MD/PhD program integrates creative approaches to multi-disciplinary graduate and medical training while promoting a strong academic and supportive community. Graduates of this program are well-positioned to become leaders in their academic medical and research specialties.
