Beginning with the 2004-2005 academic year, the Curriculum Committee has changed the third
and fourth year clinical experiences to allow required and elective rotations to be scheduled
during both years. Simultaneously, the Curriculum Committee established the Interdisciplinary
Seminar Series (IDS). The goal of the seminar series is to bring students and faculty
together to discuss topics that span the clinical years and may be utilized during multiple
clinical rotations. Topics have been identified throughout the curriculum that will be
augmented to provide well rounded educational opportunities. These topics will be
presented in an interactive learning session with the exact format determined by
the seminar leaders. Examples of sessions include case based learning, problem based
learning, standardized patients and small group discussions. Students are required to
complete a minimum of 5 topics by the midpoint of their fourth year and must schedule a
minimum of 1 seminar per 4 month scheduling block. There will be both a minimum and
maximum number of students who can attend each seminar as determined by the seminar
leader. The minimum number of students identified must be reached by the week before
the seminar for the program to occur.
Seminars are currently available covering the following topics:
