The primary goal of the School of Medicine dean’s office is to make sure that our efforts enable the School’s tri-partite mission of education, research, and clinical care, and benefit the “waiting” patient. It is the patient who is waiting for a cure, the next generation of physicians, or an appointment with a physician who can deliver needed care.
The dean’s office employees are focused on improving administrative processes that support your work. An emphasis on process improvement, standard work, problem solving, and data-driven decision making lets us be more efficient and put limited resources where they can best support our mission.
As an example, here’s a story about how research administration helps faculty.
Thanks for listening! I’ll be sharing more stories with you in the coming months.
