Students may apply towards the end of their 3rd year or in their 4th year of medical school for a clinical elective in dermatology where the focus is placed on intensive exposure to a large number of patients in different clinical settings. 学生将专门在约翰霍普金斯医院的门诊中心度过时间, Greenspring Station, 哈里特莱恩儿科中心和约翰霍普金斯医院皮肤科咨询服务). Our clinical services at these locations provide an excellent opportunity for students to interact with different types of patients and to be exposed to a wide range of skin problems.

与临床活动平行, 每周五(下午1-5点)，偶尔在其他工作日的上午授课. Formal lectures on basic dermatology topics are given by dermatology residents and faculty members. No formal exam is given.  Grading is based on the evaluations submitted by residents and faculty members and a short oral presentation.

Students who have already taken the Clinical Clerkship in Dermatology at Johns Hopkins and who are interested in a specific area of dermatology or in dermatology research may benefit from this elective. This elective gives the student the opportunity for more “in depth” participation in specific areas of interest within the department of dermatology under guidance of a faculty mentor. Arrangements have to be made between the interested student and the faculty member who will be mentoring him/her.

主要目标是积极参与一个小型临床研究项目, 或者与具有特定专业重点的教员一起进行临床和学术工作. 教师导师将提供具体的时间表. Students are encouraged to participate in all didactic activities including Grand Rounds and faculty lectures during the time spent in the department.

This course is available to visiting medical students; although preferred, 他们不需要遵循JHUSOM季度日期.

学生可以申请选修皮肤病理学，如果他们已经完成了先决条件. 学生将参加每天的签到，在那里他们将接触到大量的病例. 额外的接触将通过使用可供学生使用的学习工具来实现. The students will attend the Dermatology weekly Grand Rounds where they may see patients and participate in the discussion and presentation of the pathology for those patients. 此外，学生每周将参加一次正式的皮肤病理学教学课程.

皮肤科认为研究是教育的核心组成部分. Below is a selection of research opportunities within the department along with the associated faculty.

The Department of Dermatology at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the Ethnic Skin Program is proud to award up to five (5) diversity clerkship awards per academic year to medical students who are considered underrepresented in dermatology. 该奖项将提供经济支持，帮助学生接触该部门.  申请以滚动方式接受. Please read below for details.
