Born out of world-class hospitals and founded in 1977 by Massachusetts General Hospital, the MGH Institute of Health Professions offers a tested and proven approach to health professions education — grounded in a commitment to health equity, defined by collaboration, and backed by Mass General Brigham.
As the only degree-granting member of this world-class health system, the Institute provides students with access to clinical sites, research opportunities, and mentorship. The health professions are our only areas of focus—including research-driven clinical degrees, programs for non-clinical professionals, and continuing professional development as well as strategic partnerships with healthcare institutions. Our interprofessional model and unwavering dedication to health equity ensure that graduates are clinically prepared and purpose-driven.
From day one, students train the way they’ll practice: together, in service of better care and better outcomes.
