Meaningful Mentorship
Integrating resident physicians into the local health care and wellness environment is central to the experience at IU School of Medicine, where networking opportunities and access to the academic mission of the organization complement the clinical skills gained as part of training. A mentoring program matches each resident with a faculty mentor who offers expertise and advice in the specialty area of focus. Residents also participate on professional committees to round out the experience and prepare for successful careers in medicine.
Our mentorship program also takes into consideration the background of the resident when pairing with faculty mentors, who understand the importance of supporting a resident workforce that reflects the patients we serve. Our program offers a wide range of activities, social events, workshops and networking opportunities.
Expansive Medical Libraries
Several professional medical libraries are available to IU School of Medicine residents and fellows. Library services at the Ruth Lilly Medical Library include reference assistance, inter-library loans, and free training classes.
