缅北强奸

Forging a path towards diversity in medicine

Community of Support program and Black Candidate Pathway celebrate their first year with a 400 percent increase in incoming Black medical students

缅北强奸 has a reputation as聽. It is no surprise that admission is extremely competitive, with an acceptance rate of approximately five percent every year.

One of the most underrepresented groups in medicine is the Black community. Systematic racism and discrimination have stacked the odds against prospective Black students, who have historically made up less than two percent of students admitted into 缅北强奸鈥檚 medical school.

鈥淲hen I was younger and thought about working in medicine鈥 I didn鈥檛 think it was possible. You just didn鈥檛 see doctors who looked like me,鈥 recalled Victoire Kpad茅, who graduated from 缅北强奸鈥檚 medical program in the spring.

The Faculty of Medicine and Health Science鈥檚聽Social Accountability and Community Engagement (SACE)聽Office is working on increasing that number through the creation of the聽Community of Support聽program and the聽缅北强奸 Black Candidate Pathway.
