Division of Education
Division Overview
Welcome to the Division of Education. Our mission is to provide rigorous, evidence-based, patient-centered education to all levels of learners in learning environments that value professionalism, welcome diversity, promote empathy, and address well-being. Scholarship, service, leadership, and research remain important guiding pillars.
Members of the division are institutional leaders in undergraduate, graduate, and continuing medical education. They remain active in national and regional organizations. The division continues to take strategic steps to promote excellence, explore areas for further growth, and expand on innovation.
The thirteen-member division supports full-time and part-time educators. Internal medicine clerkship, sub-internship, and boot camp rotations are co-administered by faculty from General Internal Medicine and various subspecialties. Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and four additional regional hospitals serve as training sites for student education.
Seventy-one residents and three chief residents form the core medicine residency program. In conjunction with the Rutgers Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, the division offers the opportunity for trainees to pursue a Certificate in Clinical and Translational Science with full tuition support. The residency program is based at RWJUH and includes rotations at our affiliate, Penn Medicine at Princeton Medical Center.
