Established in 2009, the Tufts University School of Medicine - Maine Medical Center Program offers a unique and innovative curriculum, exposing students to rural practices and training in a major tertiary medical center.

Designed to meet the needs of an increasing demand for physicians in Maine, the program offers a new model of education.

The Hannaford Center for Safety, Innovation and Simulation is a state-of-the-art training center that utilizes the latest in human medical simulator technology to take medical education to the highest level possible. The center provides learners with extremely realistic scenarios, allowing them to gain significant skills while greatly reducing patient risk.

The Department of Medical Education manages 11 residencies and 7 fellowships, all approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education.

Our programs offer post-graduate training to over 230 residents and fellows.

The goal of the CME program is to provide continuing education of the highest quality for physicians. CME activities will address the continuing education needs of physicians on the MMC medical staff in addition to physicians outside the greater Portland community.
