Mission

Our mission is to ensure excellence in the educational programs sponsored by the Department of Surgery. The Education Office is a department-wide resource designed to provide administrative support to the director of the medical student core clerkship and all residency program directors within the Department. We are committed to the development and implementation of a departmental infrastructure for evaluation of resident and student academic performance and faculty teaching, and for monitoring and documentation of other training program requirements identified by the ACGME as essentials of the residency training programs.
