Education & Training

General internal medicine faculty oversee the development and education of internal medicine residents, who receive regular and extensive training in the internal medicine outpatient clinics across several sites. Clinical faculty members regularly lecture to university and community groups on a variety of topics within general medicine with a focus often on preventive care issues.

Medical scholarship is a cornerstone of the division, whose members serve as instructors and mentors for medical students and residents at both the university medical center and the veterans hospital. Several division members serve as Dean’s Scholars — specialized educators in the Clinical Foundations I and II courses — playing a key role in medical student development in the first two years of student education.

Division faculty members also proudly serve on many influential campus and UCI Health committees, and many members lend their expertise to utilization management activities, medical informatics, and hospital and clinical oversight duties.
