Welcome to the External Affairs Web site!

As Vice Chancellor for the University of Kansas Medical Center, External Affairs division, I would like to welcome you to our Web site. The purpose of our division is to promote and enhance the abilities of the Medical Center, by establishing and maintaining positive relationships with key constituents, both inside and outside of the university.

It is here that you will find information regarding our services and initiatives surrounding this purpose. Our services and initiatives include: Alumni and Community Relations, Area Health Education Centers, The Center for Telemedicine and TeleHealth, Continuing Education, Government Relations, Rural Health Education and Services, and University Relations. Additionally, information regarding special events and visitor services at the Medical Center campus may be found here.

As a whole, we work together to provide a valuable service to Kansans - and hope to expose our services to you through the External Affairs Web site. So, if it is information about connecting with a fellow classmate you’re looking for, a job opportunity with a rural health care provider, or how to contact a legislator about a health care issue, let this Web site be your guide. We hope that you will feel connected with our purpose and call upon us when we can assist you.
