As part of our partnership with the Sidney Kimmel Medical College (SKMC), MD/MPH students receive a scholarship for the MPH portion of the dual degree to help support the advanced public health training of future physicians graduating from the university. The scholarship is named in honor of Dr. Joseph S. Gonnella, a Distinguished Professor of Medicine and Dean Emeritus of Jefferson Medical College (the previous name of SKMC). Eligible students automatically receive this scholarship when they are accepted into this dual degree program.
