World-Class Medical Education
Albert Einstein College of Medicine
Albert Einstein College of Medicine is one of the nation’s premier centers for medical and graduate education, research and clinical investigation, transforming health in one of the most diverse communities in the nation and across the globe.
Founded on the principles of social justice and equity, our medical school was named after the Nobel Prize winner and humanitarian, Albert Einstein, who agreed to lend his name to the institution that would “welcome students of all creeds and races.” Today, we continue this legacy with the historic and transformational David S. and Ruth L. Gottesman Scholarship Fund that ensures all medical student tuition is covered, making our world-class medical education accessible to a new generation of diverse students.

We develop and expand programs designed to advance teamwork, communication and decision-making, and our progressive focus on comprehensive care provides an ideal training ground for our residents and fellows.
