This annual event connects first-year medical students with practicing or retired physicians from the Portland area who represent a variety of specialties and sub-specialties. Groups of students spend approximately 12 minutes conversing with a physician about his or her practice area and career before moving on to the next physician. The goal is to expose students to multiple specialties and career stages, increasing their knowledge of potential career paths and assisting them in their professional development. Volunteers from emerging area of practice and those
working in community settings are particularly needed for this evening. Get more information or volunteer by contacting us.
Informal Mentoring
Socialize with current medical students in a small group setting. If you are in the neighborhood during the day, take a few first- and second-year medical students out to lunch on Marquam Hill. This is an excellent way to share information about your career and personal experiences. As an added bonus you will receive VIP parking in front of the schooll! Or take a group out for a round of golf, enjoy a sporting event together, or just take a few students out for dinner. Let us know if this is something you’d like to do.
