Clinicians

Our faculty who are dedicated to the clinical care of our patients and communities make us who we are as an academic medical center. With more than 2,000 of our faculty having clinical responsibilities at UT Southwestern or an affiliated partner hospital, we have several programs to support clinical faculty development.

Pathways Program

Pathways

Pathways is a new career development workshop designed for thriving clinicians looking to deepen their academic focus. Tailored for late Assistant and early Associate Professors, the program offers guidance on building a niche in medical education, clinical research, and/or quality improvement. Learn from expert leaders and peers who’ve successfully navigated this journey – all while continuing the clinical work you love.
