(Clinical)Faculty Development The new curriculum
(Clinical)Faculty Development The new curriculum Integration of basic science and clinical experiences: New advanced science electives to help students explore foundational science concepts in the context of their chosen specialty. Elective content will build upon foundational science content acquired in Phase I; IUSM anticipates developing advanced science electives across all disciplines.

An intentional approach to mentoring and career development will prepare learners to make values-driven decisions about their careers, explore the actual experiences of physicians early, and choose a specialty that fits their strengths and lifestyle choices.
(Clinical)Faculty Development The new curriculum Interprofessional emphasis: Intentional learning experiences alongside peers in other healthcare fields. Through small-group instruction and additional opportunities to learn and work alongside students in other healthcare fields, IUSM learners will benefit from a collaborative approach to learning and build networks with others across campus.
(Clinical)Faculty Development The new curriculum Outcomes-based innovations: The nation’s first teaching EMR and an increased focus on improving quality and safety.
