Post-Clerkship Curriculum

The major objectives of the post-clerkship period are to prepare students for graduate medical education (residency) and to advance clinical decision making skills as students move from being able to report medical information to being able to interpret information in the interest of managing patient care (RIME model of medical education).

The planning document below lays out the over-arching goals and vision statement for the period, with information on the "micro-modules" proposed for the advanced didactics phase of the curriculum and a tentative calendar.
