About

Membership in the Medical Alumni Association (MAA) is free and conferred automatically upon graduation from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. Members of the Executive Board are dedicated alumni volunteers who help to carry out the MAA's mission to:

  • Advance the cause of medical education and health while promoting active involvement in the life of the school and enriching the lives of students.

  • Promote and uphold Pitt Medicine traditions, including Scope and Scalpel, the award-winning Pitt Med Magazine and the senior yearbook.  

  • Facilitate acquaintances and camaraderie among members of the society and the student body of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine through participation in scholarship, resource and travel funding. 

  • Support and encourage others to provide financial aid to the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and the Medical Alumni Association through annual giving and special fundraising campaigns. Gifts from alumni provide support for scholarships, research projects, a low-interest loan fund, summer work experiences and social events for current medical students.
