Medical Education
Mission
The mission of the Medical Education Pathway is to create a learner-centered, multimodal, longitudinal experience for residents that promotes the development of knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary for future careers as clinician-educators and leaders in medical education. Pathway curriculum activities include a combination of seminar sessions, teaching activities, an educational scholarship project, and mentorship that aim to address the development of resident clinician-educator competencies in the following domains:
- Clinical teaching
- Curriculum development
- Educational scholarship
- Administration
- Leadership
The Medical Education Pathway is open to all categorical, primary care track, and medicine-pediatrics program residents in good standing with the residency program. Categorical and primary care track residents complete the pathway during their second and third years of residency. Medicine-Pediatrics program residents complete the pathway during their third and fourth years of residency.
Curriculum Overview
- Seminar series: Mixture of didactics, small-group discussion, and other interactive activities. These seminars will focus on best practices in medical education and core clinician-educator competencies.
