Generalist Scholars Program
The primary focus of the Generalist Scholars Program (GSP) is the development of student leaders who intend to pursue a career in a field of generalist medicine through the practice of Family Medicine, General Internal Medicine, General Pediatrics, or Med-Peds. Each year, a small cohort of first-year students is accepted to the GSP, a four-year mentoring and scholarship program in the UVA School of Medicine, to help grow the number of generalists physicians particularly in the underserved areas of the Commonwealth.
MentorshipMoreA strong sense of community exists with an array of opportunities for formal and informal mentoring amongst the GSP faculty, students, and staff.
Enriched CurriculumMoreThe program offers an enriched curriculum that parallels the medical school studies in the UVA School of Medicine.
ScholarshipMoreStudents design and conduct an original and a longitudinal scholarship project on a primary care topic of their choosing.
