Affiliates
The University and the Foundation, including the Northeast Iowa Family Practice Center, have had a formal affiliation since 1977. Under the agreement, the Carver College of Medicine provides grants, faculty appointments, visiting professors, technical assistance, and various kinds of educational support. In return, the Foundation coordinates the College’s medical education activities in Northeast Iowa, participates in faculty development programs, teaches University students on site, and provides lodging and meals for UI learners assigned to the region. Faculty physicians at the Foundation have been appointed as members of the College of Medicine faculty.
