Through a partnership formed between the MUSC College of
Medicine and the USC School of Medicine, the Family
Medicine/Rural Clerkship program helps students to develop
a strong understanding of the clinical issues and professional
role of a primary care physician. In addition, the clerkship
trains students in the population health perspective by
teaching them how to apply the principles of community-oriented
primary care and continuous quality improvement in the provision
of health care services.
