Khan Military Scholarship
The first Khan Military Scholarships were awarded in March 2022. This scholarship fund was started by Shane Jensen, MD, a former acute care surgery fellow, in honor of Saleem Khan, MD, Professor and Chief of Emergency General Surgery at McGovern Medical School. Dr. Khan has had a distinguished military career, having been deployed seven times between 2003 and 2009 to Iraq and Afghanistan. He has served in Operation Desert Storm. He is a decorated veteran who has been awarded the Bronze Star and Legion of Merit. He currently serves our community by providing high-quality emergency general surgical care and by training the next generation of surgical and healthcare providers. The intent of the scholarship is to honor and support military trainees pursuing a career in surgery. The fund is made possible by ongoing contributions by faculty and military trainees.
