      <Desc>ACADEMIC PROGRAMS - GEISINGER COMMONWEALTH SCHOOL OF MEDICINE (GCSM) OFFERS TWO SEPARATE DEGREE PROGRAMS A DOCTOR OF MEDICINE (MD) PROGRAM AND A MASTER OF BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE (MBS) PROGRAM. GCSM ALSO OFFERS AN MD/MPH (MASTER OF PUBLIC HEALTH) PROGRAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH EAST STROUDSBURG UNIVERSITY AND AN MD/MHA DUAL DEGREE TOGETHER WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF SCRANTON. GCSM FOCUSES BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH AND TRAINING PROGRAMS ON HEALTH ISSUES PREVALENT IN NORTHEASTERN AND NORTH CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA, A 17-COUNTY REGION WITH 1.8 MILLION RESIDENTS. THE REGION HAS AN AGEING POPULATION - 17 PERCENT OF RESIDENTS ARE OLDER THAN AGE 65, COMPARED TO 13.5 PERCENT NATIONALLY. MOREOVER, THE REGION HAS HIGH INCIDENCES OF BREAST, LUNG, COLORECTAL AND PROSTATE CANCERS, AS WELL AS HIGH INCIDENCES OF NON-HODGKIN'S LYMPHOMA, OTHER CHRONIC DISEASE ASSOCIATED WITH AGEING, AND SIGNIFICANT NEEDS IN PRIMARY CARE, MENTAL/BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND COMMUNITY MEDICINE. STUDENTS SERVE THE COMMUNITY FROM THE MOMENT THEY ARRIVE AT GCSM. THEY ARE ASSIGNED TO ONE OF GCSM'S FOUR REGIONAL CAMPUSES, WHERE THEY WILL VOLUNTEER AT NONPROFIT AGENCIES AND TRAIN IN MEDICAL SETTINGS. THE FOUR REGIONAL CAMPUSES ARE NORTH (SCRANTON AND POCONO), SOUTH (WILKES-BARRE), WEST (WILLIAMSPORT) AND GUTHRIE (SAYRE). FOR THEIR FIRST TWO YEARS, STUDENTS ARE PAIRED WITH A MULTI-GENERATIONAL FAMILY COPING WITH A DISABILITY OR CHRONIC ILLNESS. THIS IS DONE TO FACILITATE STUDENTS' UNDERSTANDING FROM THE ENTIRE FAMILY'S PERSPECTIVE. STUDENTS GAIN EARLY CLINICAL EXPERIENCE AS THEY WORK WITH A PHYSICIAN MENTOR DURING THREE ONE-WEEK ROTATIONS IN THE REGIONS DURING THEIR FIRST AND SECOND YEARS OF MEDICAL SCHOOL. STUDENTS ALSO PARTICIPATE IN A COMMUNITY HEALTH RESEARCH PROJECT AND A QUALITY IMPROVEMENT COMMUNITY COLLABORATIVE WITHIN THEIR REGIONS TO GAIN RESEARCH EXPERIENCE, TO INVESTIGATE AND/OR SOLVE A COMMUNITY HEALTH ISSUE, TO MAKE AN IMMEDIATE IMPROVEMENT IN THEIR REGIONAL CAMPUS COMMUNITY AND TO ENHANCE THE HEALTH OF THE REGION'S CITIZENS. IN ADDITION, EVERY MD STUDENT IS REQUIRED TO COMPLETE 100 COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS. GCSM STUDENTS HAVE VOLUNTEERED MORE THAN 40,000 HOURS SINCE THE COLLEGE'S INCEPTION. THE STUDENTS ORGANIZE BLOOD DRIVES AND HEALTH FAIRS, TUTOR LOCAL CHILDREN, COLLECT FOOD AND WARM CLOTHING FOR THE HOMELESS AND COMPLETE MANY OTHER HELPFUL ACTS THAT IMMERSE THEM IN AND IMPROVE THE WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITY. THE MBS CURRICULUM HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH A UNIQUE, PERSONAL EDUCATION THAT WILL HELP THEM TO ACHIEVE THEIR CAREER GOALS. SMALL CLASS SIZES AND A COMMITMENT TO STUDENT-CENTERED LEARNING ARE COMBINED WITH INDIVIDUALIZED CAREER AND EDUCATION PLANNING SERVICES. THE MBS PROGRAM IS DIRECTED TOWARD STUDENTS WHO ARE EITHER SEEKING TO STRENGTHEN THEIR CREDENTIALS FOR APPLICATION TO MEDICAL/HEALTH PROFESSION SCHOOL OR WHO WANT TO WORK IN PUBLIC HEALTH, SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH OR IN OTHER HEALTH AND HEALTH-RELATED INDUSTRIES (SUCH AS LIFE SCIENCES, PHARMACEUTICALS OR MEDICAL DEVICE FIRMS).</Desc>
