The mission of the Educational Research Center (ERC) is to further scholarly inquiry and thought around the principles and practices of medical education. We support the efforts of LECOM faculty in medical education research and scholarly publication and presentation.

The ERC exists within LECOM's Teaching and Learning Center. The Teaching and Learning Center supports medical education through the offering of the "Medical Education leading to the Masters of Science" degree program; national, regional, and local faculty development programs; grants management, and curriculum support.
