Unlimited Opportunities
 In addition to excellent academic programs and a faculty comprised
of experts in every field of medicine, you’ll discover that
an HMS education offers an incredible variety of learning and service
opportunities that extend well beyond the Harvard campus and to
different continents across the world.
The Office of
Enrichment Programs (OEP) at HMS is the gateway through
which HMS students access an exciting array of local, national,
and international out-of-the-classroom experiences.
The student
services provided by the OEP include:
- staff and faculty mentors to help students develop new projects,
inform them about past projects, and match them with current
projects that have positions available
- awarding stipends for local and international research, service
and service learning projects, and advising students on funding
options
- assisting students with Spanish language learning
- helping coordinate for-credit and extracurricular service learning
projects and classes
- hosting informational workshops and seminars on topics related
to specific areas of service, international work, language learning,
and service learning
HMS students participate in a multitude of basic science and clinical
research projects locally, nationally, and sometimes internationally.
They travel to Russia to work with AIDS patients. They help in
the treatment of asthmatics in Chinatown. They work with underprivileged
kids in Appalachia and serve at community health centers in Vietnam.
Once you become part of our community, you’ll quickly discover
that to be an HMS student is to enjoy access to an unlimited
world of possibilities.
