IU School of Medicine-West Lafayette, in partnership with Franciscan Health Lafayette East and IU Health Arnett, offers early clinical practice and patient care experience for first through fourth-year medical students. To facilitate mentoring and continued learning, students work individually with community-based clinical faculty from each of the nine available third-year clerkships. By working directly with patients, local healthcare networks and practicing community physicians, students are able to learn meaningful patient care practices while preparing for a future of healing.
