Faculty at UMMC

The University of Mississippi Medical Center unites the interrelated activities of education in the health sciences and accepts responsibility for teaching, research, service and leadership in this field.

It is the faculty of UMMC who shoulder these responsibilities, creating the environment within which trainees are nurtured, new knowledge is created and exemplary patient care is modeled. You, as faculty at UMMC, are unique by virtue of membership in two professions – both of which have specific professional and ethical obligations. Whether clinician or investigator, you accept professional obligations within your area of expertise. As a UMMC faculty member, you also accept equally profound obligations as a professional educator, which brings with it a distinct set of duties to students, residents, colleagues, the institution, and the community.

Within this section of the UMMC website, we've consolidated links to resources and information to assist you in meeting these obligations, with a particular emphasis on the academic obligations.

Welcome and best wishes for your future within the UMMC faculty community.
