MEDI 5232 - Module 3: Cardiopulmonary (15 Credit Hours)



This module is designed to provide students with an overview of the clinical, pathological and treatment aspects of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. The Medical Partnership (MP) curriculum integrates the basic and clinical sciences, utilizing case-based and problem-based learning (CBL & PBL) facilitated by basic scientists and clinicians, as well as large group learning opportunities. In year 2, students examine patient problems from a biological, behavioral, and epidemiological, as well as common direct clinical perspective. Basic science is integrated in the context of patient-centered learning, using real and simulated patients. Through our integrated curriculum, students develop the interpersonal, interview, physical examination and communication skills that will permit them to solve and resolve patient problems. Threads in the MP curriculum include Foundational Sciences, Applied Clinical Skills, Clinical Skills Practice, Art of Doctoring, Ethics & Professionalism, Evidence-Based Medicine & Practice, Professional Identity Formation & Resiliency and Community & Population Health. Clinical experiences under the supervision of a clinical preceptors allow for data gathering, abnormality identification, hypothesis generation, and the development of learning issues. Through the curriculum, students are prepared for the more independent, more complex experiences of their clerkship years, postgraduate residency training programs and professional life.
