How To Reach Us

UW-Madison

Thank you for your interest in the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health.

We take great pride in our educational mission and view medical student education as the cornerstone in our foundation of academic excellence. We are dedicated to preparing outstanding leaders in all aspects of the field, from clinical practice to research and academics. This preparation will be greatly enhanced by the school’s recent transformation into an integrated school of medicine and public health. The integration brings together medicine, which traditionally focuses on individual patients from molecular, cellular and organ-system perspectives, with public health, which focuses on populations ranging from neighborhoods to towns, states, countries and even the “global village.”

I invite you to review the following pages, which provide a detailed account of our philosophy, our curriculum, our faculty, our facilities and our students. Please take special note of what our students have to say.

My very best wishes for a successful, exciting career in medicine.

Robert N. Golden, MD
