Medicine

College of Medicine

The University of Cincinnati College of Medicine has a distinguished reputation for training prominent health care professionals and providing transformative research. We are leading urban public universities into a new era of innovation and impact. At the University of Cincinnati, we realize the impact our education, research, and patient care has on our community and the world. So, we don’t wait for change to happen. We break boundaries, boldly imagine, and create what’s next.

In our core research facilities, we leverage increasing federal funding support for investigating the next generation of treatments that intentionally brings new discoveries from the laboratory bench to the patient bedside.

In our clinical research enterprise, we seek new ways to scale trials, recruit participants, and work with sponsors and partners to bring to market new therapies that have the potential to eradicate illnesses and promote healthier communities.

And alongside UC Health, we are providing better patient care in larger numbers of adults, which is showing improvement in our rankings as an academic medical center uniquely providing tertiary and quaternary care in our region.

At UC College of Medicine, the people and what they bring in talent, experience, and dedication outweighs the collective sum of all the challenges and threats in the industry. After 205 years of excellence, it is remarkable to imagine that our most profound community impact is yet to come. Please consider making a gift to UC College of Medicine on UC Day of Giving to support student scholarships and innovations in medical training and research. Every gift makes a difference.
