From the Dean

When we created the Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine we built its foundation on 10 essential values: Community, Scholarship, Innovation, Learning, Humanism, Professionalism, Patient-Centeredness, Reflection, Vision and Diversity.

The Office of Diversity and Inclusion at the School of Medicine is dedicated to inspiring and enhancing a diverse and promising student body to lead and transform medicine for the betterment of humanity. It is our commitment to diversity that makes us stronger, giving us the further ability to bring together a mosaic of people, with a wide variety of backgrounds, styles, perspectives, values and beliefs as assets to the School of Medicine. | more |
