Médecine d'apprentissage

Gestion du programme d’études

Le programme de médecine de l'Université d'Ottawa repose sur une structure dynamique à trois piliers qui intègre les sciences fondamentales (pilier des sciences fondamentales), les sciences cliniques et les compétences (pilier des sciences cliniques) ainsi que les systèmes de santé et les sciences humaines (pilier de la médecine et de la société). Ces piliers sont tissés ensemble de manière longitudinale tout au long du cursus, garantissant une approche complète et holistique de la formation médicale.

Le pilier des sciences fondamentales offre une base solide en sciences fondamentales, mettant l'accent sur la rigueur scientifique et la pensée critique. Le pilier des sciences cliniques se concentre sur l'application fluide des connaissances fondamentales à la pratique clinique grâce au développement de compétences interdisciplinaires, pratiques et renforcées par la technologie, ainsi qu'à l'entraînement au raisonnement clinique. Enfin, le pilier de la médecine et de la société favorise une compréhension de l'équité en santé, de la sécurité culturelle, de la responsabilité sociale et des aspects humanistes de la médecine.

Ce cadre intégré prépare les futurs médecins à offrir des soins compatissants et fondés sur des preuves dans des contextes de soins de santé diversifiés et en constante évolution.

Curriculum Management & Renewal

Curriculum Management consists of coordinating and managing all aspects related to the MD Program curriculum maintenance activities, including revision and production of learning modules, management of curriculum objectives and copyrights. For any questions concerning curriculum management, please contact the Curriculum Coordinator.

CC

The Curriculum Committee (CC) is a subcommittee of the Undergraduate Executive Committee (UGEC) with the responsibility to conduct timely and systematic reviews, revise the content and evaluate the curriculum’s structure and intended outcomes to ensure it is current, coherent, coordinated, and fulfills the Undergraduate Medical Education (UGME) program objectives of the Faculty of Medicine. For more details on the CC please refer to our Governance page.  Please click on the following links to obtain more information on the meeting dates, agendas, and the template for briefing notes.

Change Requests

The AEC office is responsible to manage all curricular content and is the only entity able to properly assess and support change requests and determine the impact any new or modifications to existing content may have on the existing curriculum design, content, and established learning objectives.

Note that all proposals for curricular change including new or revised content, format, educational design, and sequencing must be approved by the Curriculum Content Review Committee (CCRC).

There are three types of changes that could be reviewed and approved:

  1. Minor changes are changes that do not impact the education purpose, design, or evaluation of an existing learning activity. These changes require a timeline of one to three months of process.
  2. Moderate changes are impacting the education purpose, design, or evaluation of an existing learning activity/unit/courses/rotations or proposals to add new learning activities within a unit or rotation. These changes require a timeline of three to six months of process.
  3. Major changes impact the MD program objectives; the addition, revision or elimination of course codes; or proposed changes to the educational design of the MD Program.  These changes require a timeline of six to twelve months of process.
