Clerkships allow for increased responsibility in patient care as well as the opportunity to pursue areas of individual interest. The electives provide students with the opportunity to select the clinical or basic science experiences to best meet their particular career goals.
Any absence from a clerkship MUST BE approved by the clerkship director no later than 30 days BEFORE the clerkship begins. Students should not go to clerkship directors and indicate that airline tickets or other arrangements have been made and presume that permission will be granted. You should not make any reservations before getting APPROVAL of the clerkship director. PCM-3002 Principles of Clinical Medicine VI (1 credit hour). The PCM M-4 curriculum is designed as a Continuing Medical Education (CME) model. The goal is to provide direction for students to develop the skills necessary to become life-long learners and the ability to share their learning as effective teachers in both the academic as well as the community setting. Successful completion of the M-4 PCM will require 24 hours of CME credit, which will include both required and optional didactic and experiential components (preclinical courses and clinical rotations). The Directorate reserves the right to adjust the hour requirements for the future based on the results of this experience.
