Rural Speaker Series

The Rural Speaker Series is a program hosted by RUUTE where doctors from various rural and/or underserved areas of Utah come to campus and talk to medical students about what their work consists of, challenges, tips, and benefits of working in this field. Medical students of any year are invited to attend and learn from our speakers. This event is typically on a weekday from 12:00 - 1:00 PM. The Rural Speaker Series is a flexible option for preceptors to become involved with RUUTE and can be facilitated online or in person. Lunch will be provided and the RUUTE Program will provide lodging and mileage reimbursement if needed.

Time commitment: 1 hour
