Clinical Adjunct Track
Clinical adjunct track faculty are community clinicians who volunteer their time to aid in the training of learners across the state of Wisconsin (Statewide Campus). Our clinical adjuncts are very important for achieving our teaching mission. SMPH values the efforts and contributions of our Clinical Adjunct faculty locally and across health systems in Wisconsin. Find out more about the benefits of being a clinical adjunct faculty member.
