Many faculty members in the Department of Social Medicine periodically supervise scholarly elective projects developed by individual students, following their first year of medical school, involving various topics and research methods. Elective studies may include readings of archival or literary sources, research in social epidemiology or health service delivery using institutional datasets or surveys, analysis of international travel experiences, or interview-based or observational studies of particular groups or settings. Electives generally culminate in a summary paper, report, or presentation. Students develop specific elective proposals with individual faculty members.

Barry Saunders is Course Director for Electives. Rachel Niehuus will be Course Director commencing in June 2025. Arlene Davis directs Clinical Ethics Electives.
