 Comfort with ambiguity: You can engage with messy problems, ask good questions, and help drive toward a practical, shippable solution.

The UCSF School of Medicine&rsquo;s undergraduate medical education program trains approximately 700 medical students across its San Francisco and regional campuses and is nationally recognized for innovation in competency-based, learner-centered education. Through the Bridges Curriculum, students integrate foundational science with early clinical immersion, inquiry, and health systems improvement, preparing them to care for diverse populations and advance equity in health. Students learn in small-group coaching communities, complete scholarly projects addressing real-world health challenges, and train in a wide network of academic and community settings, including safety-net and rural environments. The program emphasizes clinical excellence, scientific curiosity, interprofessional collaboration, and leadership development, preparing graduates for residency and for lifelong careers in patient care, research, education, and public service. 
 
As part of its commitment to expanding access to medically underserved populations, the School has developed two regional campuses in the San Juaquin Valley (SJV) at UCSF Fresno and UC Merced to launch a combined BS-MD program based entirely for residents of the SJV. 
 
With one of the nation's largest graduate medical education (GME) programs, UCSF School of Medicine GME is where excellence in patient care, innovation, and equity converge to shape the future of medicine. Our residents and fellows are at the forefront of academic medicine and will become future leaders to advance health worldwide.

</div><div>About UCSF
<div>The University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) is one of the world&rsquo;s leading universities exclusively focused on health. Dedicated solely to the health sciences, UCSF comprises four professional schools&mdash;Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, and Pharmacy &ndash; a Graduate Division for predoctoral and postdoctoral scientists, and UCSF Health. UCSF is driven by a singular mission: advancing health worldwide. 
 
UCSF provides teaching, research, and patient care services at multiple locations, including the 107-acre Parnassus campus with more than 600,000 square feet of research space and a medical center; its UCSF Mission Bay campus, a 61.7-acre campus with more than one million square feet of research space and a medical center comprising three specialty hospitals; and other major campus locations in San Francisco and Oakland. UCSF also maintains partnerships with three affiliated institutions, Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center, the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Medical Center, and Community Medical Center Fresno. 
 
UCSF is undertaking an ambitious capital expansion with several projects of direct interest to the School of Medicine scheduled for completion by 2030. These include a new adult hospital and major research and academic building on the Parnassus Campus, a new children&rsquo;s hospital on the Oakland Campus, a new education center on the Mission Bay Campus, and a new proton therapy and clinical building adjacent to the Mission Bay Campus. This later project will include a large incubator for start-up companies. 
 
UCSF ranks among the top five universities nationwide in total funded research. All four professional schools are nationally recognized for excellence in education and rank either first or second in the intensifying competition for federal research dollars from the National Institutes of Health. Among the more than 4,800 UCSF faculty members, there are six Nobel laureates, 13 Lasker Award recipients, six Shaw Prize recipients, five recipients of the National Medal of Science, and four recipients of the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences.

UCSF also takes seriously its role as a public servant and community educator. From a medical clinic for the homeless and low-cost dental programs for the underserved to home therapy services for recently discharged patients and special programs for aging and troubled adolescents, UCSF is intimately involved in improving the health of the community. Since 1987, UCSF has been bolstering science education in San Francisco public schools with a partnership program between teachers and UCSF scientists.
