Naming
[edit]Does anyone know why they called a medical faculty after a Physicist? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.18.17.45 (talk) 10:11, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
I think it was meant to be named after a famous Jewish person of science, as the institution is very research oriented and is part of a Jewish University. They asked Einstein, one of the worlds most famous people, for his permission to use his name for the school. SineBot (talk) 19:07, 15 April 2022 (UTC) as i heard the story, this is correct, but it was told, in one of the AECOM internal magazines, roughly like: the founding dean goes to visit princeton to get AEs permission. he says, no, I'm a physicist. the dean says, well we will call it the Pasteur school AE, but he was french, and not jewish founder, well, we will call it the schmorekin school AE, looking puzzled, who is schmorekin ? founder, you know dr einstein, with your name, we will never get asked that question....
leftist and women
[edit]AECOM gave jobs to many famous scientists who were kicked out in 50s red scares, notable Alex Novikoff AECOM gave jobs to woman: eg, Ora Rosen graduated 1st in her class from columbia med school, and couldn't get ajob (vrey similr to sandra day o connor) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.91.51.31 (talk) 02:43, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Diversity
[edit]"The medical school is known for its humanistic approach to its curriculum and training and for the diversity of its student body. The class of 2017 includes 183 students from 24 different U.S. states, 16% were born outside the U.S., and 11% identify themselves as belonging to groups considered underrepresented in medicine."
That actually doesn't sound that diverse? - 130.102.158.13 (talk) 04:45, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

Yeshiva
[edit]It seems to me that Yeshiva should be mentioned somewhere in the intro, given that it remained affiliated until last year. john k (talk) 00:15, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
January 2020: Peacock wording
[edit]I have just applied Template:Peacock to this article, as portions of it appear to have been written by the institution's PR department.--Quisqualis (talk) 20:54, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
History
[edit]I was a PhD student at AECOM in the late 1980s, and the anecdotes I heard about money, and Yeshiva university, were that large sums of money were transferred FROM AECOM to Yeshiva And that many of the Senior AECOM faculty were unhappy, as they felt that Yeshiva was taking research money I can't support this with reliable sources, so I haven't editied the article, but this is what I heard from people who were in a posistion to know — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.245.17.105 (talk) 19:09, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
Vague, outdated claims about academic program rankings and quality
[edit]Summerdays1 is insisting that this article include the following sentence:
- Einstein ranks 13th among top U.S. medical schools for graduate success in academic medicine and biomedical research (i.e., awards, publications, grants, and clinical trials), and its NIH funding per investigator consistently ranks among the highest in the nation (7th among US universities in 2019).[1][2][3][4]
There are several significant problems with this sentence. First, the claim that the college's "NIH funding per investigator consistently ranks among the highest in the nation" doesn't appear to be supported by the cited sources - a single year's ranking cannot support this claim. Second, that claim doesn't belong in a section about the college's academics (Summerdays1 is also insisting that the section be labeled "Programs," a label that is vague and not what is recommended by our advice for college and university articles). Third, the claim that the college "ranks 13th among top U.S. medical schools for graduate success in academic medicine and biomedical research (i.e., awards, publications, grants, and clinical trials)" is vague. When was this ranking assigned? ElKevbo (talk) 12:36, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
- 13th is from the Academic Medicine article, dated 2015. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 14:45, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
