“We’ve made major headway against our commitment to providing qualified students access to a quality medical education, producing successful student outcomes, celebrating our diverse community and fulfilling societal healthcare needs – but what’s more exciting is where we have yet to go
Leadership is laser-focused on student outcomes
Dean Owen and his administration have re-engineered every aspect of RUSM curriculum, from basic sciences through clinical training and preparation for residency.
Student services, academic support, clinical operations and departments such as The Center of Career Attainment and The Academy of Teaching and Learning have all been strengthened to ensure every graduate is ready for a successful career.
The results
• 627 current and former Ross graduates attained residencies in 2018 in 20 disciplines
• 94% USMLE Step 1 first-time pass rate in 2017
The future
- RUSM plans to help fill the growing need for primary care physicians in the U.S.
- Over 14,000 alumni strong with many students who have committed to primary care specialties contributing to the overall physician shortage of primary care professionals in the US.
