Pathway Programs Roundtable
 
The Pathway Programs support and partner with programs and initiatives that have a relationship with Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and serve to prepare and inspire talented high school, undergraduate, and post-baccalaureate students from communities underrepresented in medicine (UIM). While each Pathway Program and initiative has its own distinct goals for students, all strive to:
 
 

Building Pathway Programs for UIM Students

Numerous studies document the disparities in the quality of health and health care among different racial, ethnic and socio-economic groups. Experts agree that increasing diversity in the health care workforce is essential to effectively address these health care disparities.

The Pathway Programs and initiatives contribute to increasing diversity and inclusion within the health care workforce by aiding in the reduction of barriers and the creation of opportunities that assist UIM students in their pursuit of careers in medicine and/or biomedical science. 

Office of School of Medicine High School & Undergraduate Internship Programs

The JHM Office of Strategic Workforce Development will provide processing support for current secondary or post-secondary students in academic internships sponsored by a SOM department and a high school or undergraduate educational institution (non-Hopkins).

Diversity at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine

The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine considers diversity as one of the core components of medical education. We are committed to supporting learners via one-on-one mentoring, recruitment and retention of a diverse student body, and sponsoring activities to increase diversity.
