The Universidad Autonoma de Guadalajara (UAG) School of Medicine is proud to announce an exciting new collaboration with Project IMG, a global community dedicated to supporting International Medical Graduates (IMGs) on their journey to U.S. residency. This partnership marks a milestone as UAG becomes the first medical school in the world to launch an official Project IMG school chapter, providing students with unparalleled access to resources, mentorship, and programs tailored to their success.
Through this initiative, UAG students will gain direct access to a structured support system designed to help them overcome the challenges of securing a residency in the United States. The chapter will serve as a dedicated hub on campus, offering specialized resources such as:
-Residency Preparation Workshops – Expert-led sessions covering key topics like residency applications, interview techniques, and U.S. healthcare system navigation.
-Mentorship Opportunities – Direct connections with physicians, UAG alumni, and medical professionals who have successfully matched into U.S. residency programs.
-Networking Events – In-person and virtual events bringing together students, residents, and medical professionals to build relationships and expand career opportunities.
-Educational Resources – Access to exclusive study materials, residency guides, and preparation tools tailored for the U.S. Match process.
-Hands-on Guidance – Support in navigating essential residency steps, including USMLE exam preparation, clinical experience requirements, and visa processes.
Michael Hermosa, Partner at Project IMG, expressed his enthusiasm about this partnership:
"We are extremely honored and grateful for the opportunity to work with UAG. This dedicated hub will serve as a place where students can access programs, resources, and opportunities to help them achieve their dreams. The best part? It will all be available on campus."
Dr. Kashif Ahmad, Dean of UAG’s International Program, emphasized the importance of this collaboration for the university’s medical students:
"I value the mission of Project IMG in providing equal access and opportunities for IMGs to secure the residencies of their choice in the United States. We are thrilled to launch this inaugural chapter at UAG, ensuring our students have the best possible resources and support on their journey."
This collaboration reflects UAG’s commitment to student success by equipping future physicians with the necessary tools to excel in the competitive U.S. medical landscape. With direct access to Project IMG’s expertise, network, and tailored guidance, UAG students will have a significant advantage as they work toward their goal of practicing medicine in the U.S.
UAG School of Medicine continues to lead the way in medical education and global opportunities, forging strategic alliances that enhance student outcomes and career success.
