eluch15 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Can someone explain the difference between a medicine module and organ based curriculum? How are they different if they are different at all? I am deciding between two schools that have these two differing curriculums and want to know the pros and cons of each type of curriculum! I would love to hear current students' thoughts on these teaching methods! Thank you in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyJ Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I'm not sure there is a comparison. The medical model focuses on cause and effect of disease processes. Organ (or system based) curriculum is just a framework for teaching one organ system at a time. So, across all your classes, you should cover the cardiovascular system at the same time. Not learning about cardio in adult medicine, while covering derm in pharmacology. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
