Alpha Omega Alpha

Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society (AΩA) is a national medical honor society founded in 1902.   AΩA Alpha Chapter of the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences is the oldest chapter in Washington, D.C., founded in 1954. The GWU Alpha Chapter  is under the faculty leadership of Dr. Alan Wasserman and Dr. Angelike Liappis.

AΩA is dedicated to the belief that in the profession of medicine we will improve care for all by:

  • recognizing high educational achievement
  • supporting the ideals of humanism
  • promoting service to others
  • honoring gifted teaching
  • encouraging the development of leaders in academia and the community

Election to Alpha Omega Alpha is an honor signifying a lasting commitment to professionalism, leadership, scholarship, research, and community service. A lifelong honor, membership in the society confers recognition for a physician’s dedication to the profession and art of healing.  Annually the chapter and student leadership organizes an update of the GW AΩA Guide to the 4th year and Residency. This online resource is a service the AΩA provides to GWU medical students.  The document is continuously replenished with the advice, contacts and interview experiences from all students in each graduating class.  The students selected for AΩA induction also provide unpaid tutorial services to those in academic need.  Students needing help should contact the Dean Goldberg to be matched with an available student.

Students, alumni, faculty, and house staff are officially inducted into AΩA just prior to the medical school graduation ceremony in May.
