A New Era in Medical Education
The School of Medicine is at the forefront of a major transformation in medical education. Known as the “flipped-classroom” model, this new approach moves traditional lecture content to online video, thereby freeing classroom time for interactive learning among peers and faculty.
Undergraduate & Youth Opportunities
The School of Medicine sponsors a number of programs to introduce undergraduate and high school students from underrepresented backgrounds to careers in medicine and basic science research.
The Li Ka Shing Center for Learning and Knowledge is the primary hub for the medical school's educational activities. In addition to flexible learning spaces, the center houses a student lounge and the most comprehensive health-care simulation training facility in the country.
