MEDIZINISCHE AUSBILDUNG

The foundation of the undergraduate medical student curriculum at the University of Missouri School of Medicine is patient-based learning, a style of medical education introduced more than 20 years ago at MU that allows students to work through real clinical cases to foster skills individually and in interdisciplinary teams.

With an emphasis on clinical reasoning, self-directed and collaborative learning, and early clinical experiences, the curriculum prepares students to deliver care that improves the health of individuals and communities.
