Orientation sessions and activities are coordinated by the Office of Student Affairs (OSA). Orientation for first year (M1) medical students begins with an introduction to the mission and vision of Cooper Medical School of Rowan University (CMSRU). In addition, scheduled presentations serve to introduce new students to personnel, policies, and procedures. Orientation sessions include: an overview of the medical education program and introductions to other CMSRU offices, including OSA student support services, wellness activities and Office of Diversity and Community Affairs (ODCA) programming. During Orientation, students have an opportunity to meet other student colleagues, faculty and staff, and to become familiar with the CMSRU Medical Education Building.
