Academic Outreach programs are designed to prepare and inspire students to pursue careers in medicine and medical research. Jefferson is committed to providing enrichment experiences and education to increase the pool of qualified candidates applying to careers related to medicine and medical research.
Launched in 2014 with a focus on science and health professions, the academic outreach programs have grown to include architecture, landscape design, textile design, fashion, and more following the merger of Philadelphia University and Thomas Jefferson University.
Central to the mission of these programs is expanding opportunities for all students, including those from diverse, first-generation, and historically marginalized communities to explore their interests and prepare for their futures.
