Community Faculty Appointments & Promotion
Community Faculty
Since 1971, UICOMR has relied on hundreds of area physicians to carry out our community-based medical training. There are no better instructors or educators for our students than our clinically active community-based faculty. A variety of opportunities exists for local providers interested in teaching the next generation.
