Michigan State University's College of Human Medicine

Whenever I try to understand the future, I look for where the "lines cross," and where new intersections appear. That is exactly what Michigan State University has been doing through its College of Human Medicine.

MSU's College of Human Medicine (CHM) has a national reputation for its history of innovation and excellence in medical student education. Founded in 1964, CHM was the first community-integrated medical school, with a curriculum that emphasized a patient-centered philosophy and a biopsychosocial approach to caring for patients.

More than 3,100 M.D. graduates of the College have experienced a unique combination of basic science education on the campus of a large, land-grant University, and clinical education in one of six campuses located across the state of Michigan. More than 200 paid and 3200 volunteer faculty are committed to teaching core institutional values that mark CHM graduates as unique and exemplary: respect of and care for patients, commitment to community, and the incorporation of psychological, social, and spiritual elements into care delivery.
