Students at GW have the opportunity to participate in the Interdisciplinary Student Community Patient Education Service (ISCOPES) project, a collaborative effort between the GW Medical Center and George Mason University that is dedicated to improving community health care through service learning. The program involves students from medicine, health sciences, and public health programs who, in interdisciplinary teams, design and participate in service learning activities. One of the only programs of its kind in the country, ISCOPES allows students to gain hands-on experience, serve others, and strive to improve the delivery and quality of community-oriented primary care and health care education.
