EspañolINDIANA UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE
The 'Indiana University School of Medicine' is the medical school of Indiana University, part of the Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI) campus located in Indianapolis, Indiana. Established in 1903, the school had an initial class of 25 students. It is currently the second largest medical school in the United States(First being University of Illinois College of Medicine) with over 1100 students in 2006. It is the only medical school in the state of Indiana.
First- and second-year students attend classes at either the main Indianapolis campus (approximately half of the class) or one of eight regional centers at college campuses throughout the state: Bloomington, Muncie, Fort Wayne, South Bend, Terre Haute, Evansville, West Lafayette, and Northwest (in Gary). Third- and fourth-year students spend the last two years of medical school at the IUPUI campus.
The Indiana University School of Medicine has received national and international recognition for its innovative curriculum. In order to ensure that its educational process more accurately reflected its commitment to graduating caring and competent physicians, the Indiana University School of Medicine initiated a competency curriculum in 1999. The first class of students to enter under a four-year competency curriculum graduated in 2003. The newly established curriculum consists of nine competencies: Effective Communication; Basic Clinical Skills; Using Science to Guide Diagnosis, Management, Therapeutics, and Prevention; Lifelong Learning; Self-Awareness, Self-Care, and Personal Growth; the Social and Community Contexts of Health Care; Moral Reasoning and Ethical Judgment; Problem-Solving; and Professionalism and Role Recognition. Assessment and certification of achievement of the nine competencies is sequentially integrated into each year of the curriculum culminating with a competency transcript upon graduation.
To model and support the moral, professional, and humane values expressed in the new formal competency-based curriculum, the IU School of Medicine simultaneously implemented a school-wide "relationship-centered care initiative" to address its informal curriculum.[1]
The School helps train interns and residents in 92 medical and surgical specialties. Students train under faculty and staff at:
★ Indiana University Hospital
★ James Whitcomb Riley Hospital for Children
★ Methodist Hospital
★ The Richard L. Roudebush VA Medical Center
★ Wishard Memorial Hospital
All of these hospitals are within walking distance of, or adjacent to, IUPUI, with the exception of Methodist Hospital, which is located a few miles from campus.
