The Weill Graduate School of Medical Sciences of Cornell University was founded by the convergence of two great institutions. This unique academic partnership between Weill Cornell Medical College and Sloan-Kettering Institute was formalized in 1952 under the auspices of Cornell's Graduate School and has resulted in the creation of a faculty whose research interests span the full spectrum of biomedicine.
This well-integrated faculty has had one unifying mission - to offer its students a carefully designed, research-oriented graduate program that adheres to the highest standards of graduate education. The Weill Graduate School of Medical Sciences is part of a large biomedical center extending along York Avenue between 65th and 72nd Streets on Manhattan's Upper East Side.
