Career Interest Groups
Overview
Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine offers students an early exposure to array of medical specialties through the medical student Career Interest Groups. Students are offered opportunities to shadow, engage in research, and meet faculty and residents in a non-graded environment. Although students may change their career interests over time, we believe engagement with these groups early is important in their Professional Identity Development.
