SUNY Upstate is an upper-division transfer and graduate school specializing in healthcare careers. We are one of 140 academic medical centers in the country and the only one in Central New York.  Our academic medical center setting includes a Level-1 trauma centerchildren’s hospitalcancer center, and biomedical research enterprise.  

What do we offer?

Our College of Medicine’s residency match rate is consistently above the national average. 

The MD/PhD program at SUNY Upstate trains future physician-scientists who combine the practice of medicine in the clinic with biomedical research in the laboratory to understand and treat disease. The program is committed to the recruitment of students with diverse educational and cultural backgrounds who have a passion for research in the biomedical sciences and clinical care. Entering students complete the first two years of medical school, then select a laboratory for their doctoral research and complete their PhD (minimum three years) before finishing their third and fourth years of clinical training. MD/PhD students have their tuition waived and receive a generous stipend throughout the program.

MD/MPH By building on the combined strengths of Upstate’s College of Medicine and Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, this dual degree program provides opportunities to students seeking to impact the health of the population. Students interested in applying to the MD/MPH program must complete all the requirements for admission to the College of Medicine. It is possible to complete both degrees in five years, instead of the six it normally would take to complete both separately.  

The College of Medicine’s Rural Medical Scholars Program The Rural Medical Scholars Program (RMSP) is designed to identify, recruit and nurture students interested in small-town or rural practice, by offering community-based clinical training. Our students work in the Finger Lakes, Catskills, Adirondacks, and many other beautiful areas. They learn in a community that welcomes them and provides an unparalleled opportunity to learn both the science of medicine and the art of the doctor-patient relationship.  

The College of Medicine is fully accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, which accredits programs leading to the MD degree in the United States and Canada. United States graduates of LCME-accredited programs are eligible for residency programs accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and are eligible to take the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE).
