From the beginning, the Lewis Katz School of Medicine has been driven by a belief that education and healthcare can open doors and transform communities. Today, across our three campuses—in North Philadelphia, Bethlehem, PA, and York, PA—that spirit continues as a place where determination, resilience, and opportunity converge.

Our five-year strategic plan, “Inspiring Excellence,” reflects Katz’s commitment to shaping the future of health. It centers on aligning with our communities, advancing equity, and raising the bar in medical education and research. Together, these priorities create a powerful framework for lasting social change in medicine.
“We have created a plan that reflects the very best of who we are and what we aspire to be. As we move forward, let us do so with a sense of purpose and determination. Together, we can achieve greatness and make a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.”
