About the School
Commitment to serving science and society through outstanding research, education, patient care and community service form the foundation that makes Mount Sinai School of Medicine of New York University one of the world's foremost centers for medical and scientific training. Our focus on developing new approaches to teaching, translating scientific discoveries into improvements in patient care, and identifying new means to enhance the health and educational opportunities of our neighbors shapes the educational experience of our students.
Curriculum
For 40 years, Mount Sinai School of Medicine has fostered a cooperative environment that facilitates the development of the two most important skills a future physician can acquire: the capacity to critically evaluate new information and the flexibility to synthesize the information into adaptations in practice. We focus on treating the whole patient. Medical ethics, the social aspects of disease and cultural diversity are essential elements of study.
Facilities
To support our curriculum, we have pioneered some of the most advanced learning tools available to medical students anywhere. The Morchand Center for Clinical Competence is one such tool. The first training and evaluation facility of its kind in New York, the Center was established in 1991 to use state-of-the-art audiovisual systems and standardized surrogate patients to teach the human side of medicine. The Center for Multicultural and Community Affairs (CMCA) is a federally designated Center of Excellence that supports the diversity which has always been a hallmark of the School. The Center oversees minority affairs activities, culture and medicine programs, community service opportunities, and a variety of partnerships to encourage New York City high school students to consider careers in medicine and science.

Why no Tier Rankings?
Although we could tier rank, over the past 25 years we've found no compelling benefit for ranking schools. Students are most successful when they prioritize personal and academic fit over school rank.
