Clinical Education

As an innovative and independent graduate school operating within the framework of Mass General Brigham, the MGH Institute is a progressive leader in developing comprehensive models of health care education. Placements at regional facilities are carefully cultivated to provide you the best opportunity to practice what you have learned in the classroom. Plan for access to transportation - students typically use a car to access clinical placements. 

In addition, you will immediately apply what you are learning in our on-campus practical labs and IMPACT Practice Center. The well-equipped spaces provide a range of skills development opportunities for supervised individual and group practice of patient care activities.
