UMMC welcomes students and staff back to campus

University of Mississippi Medical Center said it is welcoming students and staff back to campus in a post on its Facebook page, writing, “The future of health care is back on campus.”

The post also said, “Welcome back, UMMC! Let’s make it a great year!” and used the university’s social media channel to greet learners, faculty and employees as they return to on-campus activities.

The University of Mississippi Medical Center, commonly known as UMMC, serves as the state’s academic health center, offering education, clinical training, research and patient care. The center trains physicians, nurses and other health professionals and operates hospitals and clinics that serve communities across Mississippi.

The return to campus typically signals a resumption of classroom instruction, clinical rotations and laboratory research that are central to medical and health professions education. University social media often acts as a way to share updates, orientation information and public health guidance with students and staff.

Details about specific events, schedules or safety measures were not included in the post. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
