Welcome to the Graduate School of Medicine

Welcome to the University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine (GSM)!

The GSM has a national reputation in education and is building research programs of national merit. As part of the University of Tennessee Health Science Centers in Memphis and Chattanooga, we are committed to provide statewide initiatives in medical and dental education as well as selected research endeavors. Our clinical partner, University Health System Incorporated, works with us to create the University of Tennessee Medical Center through which we provide the best medical care in the region.

Today the GSM is a growing enterprise of faculty and research with 170 residents and 200 faculty in 12 residency and 9 fellowship programs in medicine and dentistry. In addition to these residencies, we offer ten fellowships and medical student core M3 rotations and M4 electives. Our faculty and residents are some of the nations finest. Educational and research opportunities are available through our numerous linkages with the main University of Tennessee campus, the University of Tennessee School of Veterinary Medicine, and Oak Ridge National Laboratories.

Our campus prides itself that our faculty practice medicine and dentistry as well as teach. We strongly believe that patient care is still a priority, and that being a practicing doctor is essential to being a good educator.
