University of South Alabama (College of Medicine)


University of South Alabama (College of Medicine) FIRST AND SECOND YEARS

preclinical years.

THIRD YEAR

The junior courses (clerkships) provide training in
most of the basic problems with which patients present
themselves. Students learn to apply scientific principles
to the examination, diagnosis, and treatment of human
disease. Seminars, conferences, and clinical rounds
with members of the teaching staff are important in giving the student a rounded perspective of human
illness.

FOURTH YEAR

The senior program is mostly elective in order to
provide each student the opportunity to choose a
program best suited to his or her individual needs.
Each department makes available to the student a
spectrum of general and special courses from which the student selects a minimum of 36 weeks of study, with the advice and approval of a Faculty Advisor. Research may be carried as an elective. Off campus studies (local, elsewhere in the United States, and in other countries) may be elected with the prior approval of the Vice Dean for Student Affairs and Medical
Education, a departmental chair, and Faculty Advisor.
Limited electives for credit are available in the first two
years.
The degree, Doctor of Medicine, is conferred upon
graduating seniors.
