Distinction Tracks

The Distinction Track program at the University of Louisville School of Medicine was created to meet two primary goals: to increase the number of students choosing a career in academic medicine and to provide students with opportunities to focus on areas in medicine for which they have a passion. The University of Louisville currently has five Distinction Tracks, including Business and Leadership, Global Health, Health Equity & Medical Justice, Medical Education, and Research. Each track is unique in its requirements, ensures a mentored longitudinal experience, and culminates in a scholarly project. Students have the opportunity to apply for Distinction Track programs during their first year of medical education. Learn more about School of Medicine Distinction Track programs.
