The University of Iowa has a rich history of pioneering programs and policies that reduce obstacles in higher education. We are dedicated to continuing this legacy by actively participating in ongoing endeavors to cultivate a campus community that excels in molding our students into globally competent leaders, through the concerted efforts of our faculty and staff in teaching, research, and services.
As an educational and research institution, the University of Iowa is fully committed to free inquiry and vigorous debate. Free expression, academic freedom, and an array of perspectives are all crucial to the fulfillment of our core mission. The robust exchange of distinct ideas is the essence of a public research university.
AMS is a graduate student and postdoctoral scholar-led organization sponsored by the Carver College of Medicine’s Office of Health Parity. Our mission statement is “to create an environment at the University of Iowa that is conducive in supporting the academic, professional, and social needs of all post-graduates." We aim to create a culturally rich space where students, trainees, scholars, staff, and faculty can work towards reaching their academic, professional, and social goals.
