Traverse City - Community Info

Welcome to the Traverse City Campus College of Human Medicine at Michigan State University.

Integrating medical students into small communities allows for significant, meaningful patient contact that best prepares them for real world situations. Students are connected to an array of health care setting including hospitals, clinics, and physician offices. All students are exposed to clinical settings that are rich with opportunities for learning, hands-on experiences, and engaging in medical practice.

Third- and fourth-year medical students serve in clerkships, working with high-quality, committed physicians. Basic four-week clerkships include inpatient and ambulatory rotations in OB/GYN , Family Medicine, Psychiatry, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, and Surgery. Advanced clerkships and electives complete the 77 - week program. Graduates receive an MD degree and go on to a residency program.
