This summer, three MUSC medical students received the Center for Global Health Student & Trainee Travel Grant to work in communities worldwide. They partnered with locals, improved their clinical skills, and gained new cultural perspectives on care.

We’re incredibly proud of these students for representing MUSC on a global stage and bringing home experiences that will shape the physicians they become.

Grant recipients and where they served:
• Amelia Hilton - Soddo, Ethiopia
• Michaela Close, M.D. - San Salvador, El Salvador

Six weeks of dedication, perseverance, and hard work came to a close today as we celebrated our nine Summer Institute participants.

These participants spent the summer immersed in MCAT preparation under the guidance of current medical students. They have been each other's biggest supporters this summer and will continue to build these relationships through medical school, residency, and as physician colleagues.

We are so proud of their commitment and growth, and we can’t wait to see the next steps in their journeys toward medicine!

Throughout the summer, our Summer Institute students had the opportunity to connect with College of Medicine faculty and staff during our Lunch and Learn series.

These sessions gave students valuable insight into a variety of medical fields, strategies for MCAT success, and advice for pursuing future careers in medicine.

We are incredibly proud of everything these students have accomplished this summer and can't wait to celebrate them at tomorrow's Summer Institute Closing Ceremony!
