About us
Mentorship - a formal relationship between a student and a professional adult to further the student's knowledge, skills or career
Source: Webster's Dictionary of English
Founded in 2002, the Medical Student Mentorship Program pairs current medical students at the John A. Burns School of Medicine with undergraduate students interested in pursuing a career in medicine. MSMP provides support to students applying to medical school and helps to foster relationships between undergraduates and medical students and faculty. Mentors and mentees are paired according to their academic and extra-curricular interests. Mentorship pairs participate in a variety of activities throughout the year.
