Mission statement

We celebrate over 200 years of excellence in educating physicians and physicianscientists, and in serving our local and global community. The mission of the Larner College of Medicine at The University of Vermont is to educate a diverse group of dedicated physicians and biomedical scientists to serve across all the disciplines of medicine; to bring hope to patients by advancing medical knowledge through research; to integrate education and research to advance the quality and accessibility of patient care; and to engage with our communities to benefit Vermont and the world. We achieve this mission through: Admissions: Mission aligned Mission Aligned Selection and Retention Process: Our applicant screening, interview, and acceptance processes are guided by our mission. Each matriculating student demonstrates excellence in one or more of the specific tenets of our mission, whether through research, experience with rural and disadvantaged communities, or a significant commitment to the betterment of humanity. At the core of our university is a strong mission for social justice, which appears in our medical school's mission. Because we value the unique benefits of social learning, our interview day includes a team-based activity to help our candidates become familiar with this teaching approach. Student Affairs: Individualized- Timely- Compassionate A strong, interdisciplinary, and robust team of student support professionals that "hold" our students as soon as they commit to the first day of Orientation until the day they are hooded and earn their MD. The team includes Personal Health & Well-being, Academic Support, & Intensive Career Planning, spanning both of our campuses. Curriculum: Innovative- Learner Centered- Engaging- Relevant Our active learning approach to instruction is built on adult learning principles and proven educational pedagogy. Our students construct knowledge through a variety of teaching modalities. Larner provides rural and urban clinical opportunities on two campuses in Vermont and Connecticut, where our learners engage with diverse patient populations. Our two-campus model also allows students to select an academic (VT) or community (CT) setting for their clinical rotations. Each student is required to complete a communityfocused public health project in their first year, which positions them to learn how to be present in a community, because this is their passion. Check out our website for additional curricular opportunities! The secret to achieving our mission is our well-defined culture of professionalism. Each student who is admitted to Larner can expect to enter a community that is committed to a culture of professionalism: Our Larner College of Medicine community upholds the highest standards of professionalism as we pursue lifelong learning and improvement. We demonstrate professionalism through integrity, accountability, compassion, altruism, and social responsibility. We honor the trust our society has placed in us as stewards of the art and science of medicine, guided by cultural humility, kindness, and respect in our daily interactions. We expect all members of our community to embrace these principles of professionalism as we strive to conduct and support patient care, research, and education that are second to none.
