Mission
The Mission of the United States Section of the International College of Surgeons is to foster worldwide surgical excellence through education, training, fellowship and humanitarian efforts.
Goals for Accomplishing the Mission
The primary goal of the U.S. Section of ICS is to promote and participate in the exchange of surgical knowledge and techniques. As part of this goal, the U.S. Section wishes to cultivate and strengthen friendships with surgeons in other countries.
We will increase our visibility in the United States by acquainting other organizations having international interest with our activities. This visibility will be supported through an egalitarian social and technical milieu to encourage member participation.
Humanitarian purposes of the U.S. Section include assisting in surgical missions, worldwide disaster relief and surgical care, in cooperation with other agencies.
The College is dedicated to serving the needs of the surgeon, to enrich a member's life both personally and professionally. By providing high quality educational programs in unique settings and at significantly reduced rates, members have the opportunity to attend with family and experience being part of a global community with common interests.
