We, the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, aim for excellence in all tenets of healthcare, including education, research, community engagement, and clinical care. We believe that the core values of diversity and inclusion are inseparable from our institutional goals. DGSOM leadership is committed to fostering an environment that celebrates the unique backgrounds, contributions, and opinions of each individual. Through fair and deliberate recruitment, hiring practices, promotions, admissions, and education, DGSOM will draw its talent from across the community and provide the highest quality of service to everyone we encounter. We believe in a system that supports outstanding faculty, fellows, residents, staff, and students with different perspectives and experiences. By a process of continual reevaluation, reflection, and shared responsibility, we are unwavering in our dedication to equality, communication, and respect.

UCLA'S Pipeline Program is actually a group of several programs that identify, encourage and aid students who might not otherwise think a career in medicine is a reachable goal. Given the wide diversity of people in the Los Angeles area, UCLA seeks to reflect that diversity in its workforce. By reaching out to high school and college students, promising students are identified and made aware of opportunities in healthcare. This often includes shadowing and internships, course counseling and help with studying for medical school entrance exams.
In medicine, the greatest discoveries are often simply a widening of possibilities. Through the Pipeline Program, we're widening those possibilities for all of us. Making dreams reality.
