Life at Pritzker
What's Happening This Quarter
As Fall arrives in Hyde Park, a new group of first-year students is immersed in the newly launched Phoenix Curriculum. Second-year students have returned to continue their pre-clinical education while third-year students are continuing their clinical training in the hospital and fourth-year students are applying to residency programs across the country.
