M4 Integrated Clinical Experience (ICE) Senior Seminars
The M4 Integrated Clinical Experience (ICE) Senior Seminars are designed to teach complex clinical issues at a point in students’ careers when they have a clinical context for understanding the relevance of those issues. Senior Seminars give students a time to discuss and reflect on their common professional experiences with their colleagues and faculty as they complete their medical school careers. The seminars also provide time for students to reconnect with their classmates one last time before graduation and to assist them in their transition to internship and life as a physician.
Instruction and assessment: The instructional format predominantly utilizes small group, interactive, and case-discussion formats led by faculty who are experts in their field. Lecture time and assigned readings are limited. Students are required to complete a total of 72 hours of coursework, composed of seminars each of which lasts 8 hours or 4 hours. Some seminars are required for all students and the student can satisfy the remainder of the required 72 hours by choosing from the elective menu below.
Students are assessed on attendance and participation.
An on-line Blackboard course is available for participating students and faculty.
