Beginning in preclerkship, students apply this knowledge to clinical cases (both paper based and in a clinical setting), and develop the clinical readiness required for the patient care setting in clerkship. Students develop a strong theoretical background in the foundational scientific and clinical principles of medicine. The curriculum that makes up the MD Program at the Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry at the University of Alberta is based on principles of experiential learning. The MD Program curriculum emphasizes life-long learning, problem-solving skills, team work, and interprofessional education.
