Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein) is a graduate school of Yeshiva University. It is a not-for-profit, private, nonsectarian medical school located on the Jack and Pearl Resnick Campus in the Morris Park neighborhood of the borough of the Bronx of New York City. In addition to medical degrees, Einstein offers graduate biomedical degrees through the Sue Golding Graduate Division. Allen M. Spiegel, M.D., has served as The Marilyn and Stanley M. Katz Dean since June 1, 2006.^[1]

Einstein’s main focal areas are medical education, basic research, and clinical investigation. During the 2010–2011 academic year, Einstein is home to 2,770 full-time faculty members, 724 M.D. students, 256 Ph.D. students attending the Sue Golding Graduate Division and 122 students in the combined M.D./Ph.D. program. In addition, there are 375 postdoctoral research fellows at the Belfer Institute for Advanced Biomedical Studies.^[2]

The medical school is known for its humanistic approach to its curriculum and training and for the diversity of its student body. The class of 2009 included 40 individuals from 19 countries and a group of 23 students who identify themselves as belonging to groups considered underrepresented in medicine.^[3]

Einstein is also a major biomedical and clinical research facility. Faculty members received nearly $200 million in funding from the National Institutes of Health in 2010. In addition, the NIH funds major research centers at Einstein in diabetes, cancer, liver disease, and AIDS.^[4]

Mission

The mission of Albert Einstein College of Medicine is to prepare physicians and researchers to excel in the science and the art of medicine and basic, translational and clinical investigation. Its founding mandate is to combine the pursuit of scientific excellence with a social mission to improve human health through engagement in local, national and global communities.^[5]

History

Yeshiva University President Dr. Samuel Belkin began planning for a new medical school as early as 1945. Six years later, Dr. Belkin and New York City Mayor Vincent Impellitteri entered into an agreement to begin construction. At the same time, world-renowned physicist and humanitarian Albert Einstein sent a letter to Dr. Belkin. He remarked that such an endeavor would be “unique” in that the school would “welcome students of all creeds and races.”^[6] Two years later, on his 74th birthday, March 14, 1953, Albert Einstein agreed to attach his name to the medical school.

The first classes began September 12, 1955, and had a total of 56 students. At the time, it was the first new medical school to be erected within New York City since 1897. The Sue Golding Graduate Division was established in 1957 to offer Ph.D.s in biomedical disciplines.^[7] The M.S.T.P. (Medical Sciences Training Program), a combined M.D./Ph.D. program, was first offered in 1964.[1] The C.R.T.P. (Clinical Research Training Program), which confers M.S. degrees in clinical research methods, began classes in July 1998.^[8]
