Mission

The IME serves the critical need in our institution of educating, mentoring, and retaining the best educators for our students, residents and faculty. Fostering the success of our educators includes recognizing and rewarding those who display dedication and excellence in their work, providing programs that develop and reinforce their teaching skills and their success in the promotions process, and creating a community of dedicated educators who contribute their knowledge and experience back to this community by serving as teachers and mentors. This group of invested educators is vital to perpetuating Mount Sinai's culture of excellence in teaching, research, and clinical care.
