Students wishing to conduct research electives during the course of their medical school training may do so for elective credit. This must be arranged in advance by the submission of the information requested in these forms:

Off-Campus and Research Elective Approval Form.doc

Request For Research Electives Form.doc

ResearchElectiveRequirements.doc

Completed forms should be returned to Dr. McPhaul's office (Y5.322A). Credit earned can only be used to offset elective requirements for the year in which it is taken (e.g. elective credit earned during the 3rd year could not be applied toward a requirement for a 4th year elective). 

Please note: 

1. For the sake of legibility and durable record keeping, the text of the project descriptions should be submitted in a typewritten format.

2. The student is responsible for consulting with the Registrar's office to confirm that they have the required number of credits to graduate.

3. A maximum of two credits can be awarded for research electives.
