Medical Students

Dermatology deals with all types of skin conditions - from acne to cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, from cosmetic surgery to melanoma. To help interested medical students gain experience and early insight into the scope of dermatology as a specialty, the U-M Dermatology Department provides rotations for fourth-year U-M Medical School students. Space permitting, a limited number of non-U-M medical students are also invited to take this rotation.

Directed by Chris Bichakjian, M.D. and honored by the American Academy of Dermatology, our intensive dermatology teaching sequence for second-year medical students received the Academy's National Award for Excellence in Education and is top-ranked by its students.

For information about admissions, contact the U-M Office of Student Programs (734) 764-0219.
