This website is been designed to help the student understand the goals, objectives, and structure of the clerkship, the evaluation process, and administrative requirements for the rotation. The student curriculum guide outlines the attitudes, skills, and knowledge that students need to acquire during the clerkship. Students should use this material to help focus their learning efforts. An orientation session for all students will be held on the first day of the surgical rotation. Students will be notified by mail and email of the time and place. Please check the website, email or call the Student Coordinator to find out when and where this will take place. Please review the following information before you begin the rotation. We are available if you have questions or problems. The Department of Surgery is committed to making your rotation a positive educational experience. All of us in the Department of Surgery look forward to working with you and to helping you both during your rotation and in the future.
