Medical Student Rural Site Opportunities

Later in the curriculum, after completing the required clerkships, students are assigned to one of several sites throughout the Upper Peninsula for an eight-week rural family medicine clerkship.

Current rural sites include:

The students spend eight weeks in one of these rural sites, working one-on-one with a family medicine physician, with an emphasis on family and community medicine.

This outstanding opportunity serves to coalesce prior specialty training into a humanistic, comprehensive experience and is one of the definitive hallmarks of the UP experience.
