Scholarly Concentration Programs

The Scholarly Concentration Programs (SCP) are optional four-year specialized medical training pathways that provide educational experiences in unique areas of medical practice. They are open to all UI COM students and can be layered with other Co-Curricular programs. They allow students to engage in experiences of their choosing that lead to multidisciplinary scholarship, research, and community engagement. Scholarly Concentration Programs do not add time or cost to completing an MD degree and the required work is manageable and is scheduled around the requirements of the MD curriculum.
