Overview 

The Medical University of South Carolina ranked high in the U.S. News and World Report’s annual rankings for best graduate schools in the country in the area of primary care.
“We are very pleased with the recognition of our primary care program as a leader in the Southeast and in the nation,” said Ray Greenberg, M.D., Ph.D., MUSC president. “This is a fitting tribute to the hard work of our dedicated faculty, staff, and trainees.”

Beating out schools like Harvard, Duke, and Johns Hopkins University, MUSC ranked 26 in the top 50 primary care graduate schools in the country.

“Our primary care department is very strong within the school of medicine,” said Jerry Reves, M.D., College of Medicine dean. “I’m very pleased with the national recognition for what I know as one of the finest departments in the country. Dr. (William) Hueston has done a spectacular job as chairman and the department as a whole leads in terms of patient care, research, and teaching, not only on campus but also statewide.”

Each year, U.S. News and World Report ranks graduate programs in the areas of business, education, engineering, law, and medicine. The rankings are based on expert opinion about program quality and statistical indicators that measure schools’ qualities in terms of faculty, research, and students.
