The Women in Medicine Program
in partnership with Mercy Medical Center provides a unique opportunity to observe medical procedures and meet with professionals in a specialized healthcare environment. The goal of this four-year program is to expose students to an understanding of women leaders in health-related careers, to broaden their knowledge of medical fields, and to expand their understanding of the qualities and skills necessary to be a successful healthcare professional.
This program is open to qualified ninth-graders and will continue throughout their enrollment at Mercy High School. There are a limited number of spaces available each year in this highly prestigious program, the only one of its kind in Baltimore. For students considering a career in health care—as a physician, nurse, physical therapist, or research scientist—this program offers an unparalleled experience.
