Welcome Message from the Associate Dean for Career Advising
The Office of Residency and Career Advising is here to support you through your journey to becoming a physician. To that extent, we are excited to announce a 4 year longitudinal career advising curriculum that starts from the moment that you become a first year medical student here at UC Riverside School of Medicine. The Career Advising Curriculum consists of three main components, 1) Workshops, 2) Resources and 3) Career Advising for each year of your training.
Workshops:
Each year of your training consists of different workshops to enhance your career advising experience. Your first two years focus on workshops tailored towards specialty exploration. Your final two years focus on workshops that prepare you for residency application and training.
Resources:
OCRA has created resources including specialty profiles which are UCR SOM specific data created for you to expose you to different specialties. In addition, we include resources form the AAMC Careers in Medicine, as well as residency application related resources.
Advising:
We offer career advising from members of our Career Advising Team: CAT Team (which includes OCRA and Clinical Faculty Advisors). Our OCRA Advising Team includes our Executive Associate Dean of Student Affairs, Associate Dean for Career Advising, and Career Development Specialist and Career Advisors.
We, at the Office of Career and Residency Advising, here at UC Riverside School of Medicine look forward to partnering with you in your path to become a physician. When I reflect upon my career, I have been fortunate enough to have incredible mentors in my journey, and I aspire to do the same for each and everyone of you here at UC Riverside School of Medicine.
I am honored to help guide you and support you every single step of the way.
