Summer Medical Education Program (SMEP)
The Summer Medical Education Program is a free summer program designed
to enrich the education of talented, under-represented minority
premedical students. SMEP students are provided with the opportunity
to study in an active clinical environment allowing them to examine
their future in medicine and strengthen their skills in applying
for medical school. By helping minority students become more competitive
candidates for medical school, SMEP is working to increase the number
of minority physicians nationwide.
