What We Do

"Before I began medical school, there was no doubt in my mind that UT Southwestern was one of the best medical schools in the country. I knew the education I would receive, the physicians I would meet, and the degree I would graduate with would open many doors for me."

– Caroline Carter, MD
Class of 2011

We produce graduates who are problem-solvers, not merely receptacles of knowledge. Students are engaged in a curriculum that offers strong basic-science preparation and extensive, meaningful clinical experiences. The educational mission is complemented by a broad research agenda that keeps UT Southwestern at the forefront of biomedical research.

At UT Southwestern, medical knowledge is more than an academic exercise. It’s real-world experience. Faculty, residents, and students annually provide direct care to nearly 100,000 hospitalized patients and oversee approximately 2 million outpatient visits.
