Academic Medicine Certificate
|
|
Students who do not wish to pursue a Master of Academic Medicine degree at this point may earn a university certificate in Academic Medicine. The certificate requires 12 units of course work. Each learner may only seek a single certificate. There are two options available: Teaching/Learning and Leadership. The teaching/ learning option provides graduates with the essential principles of teaching and learning needed to integrate learning principles, teaching techniques, and assessment methods within the health professions to effectively teach health professions learners at all levels: undergraduate, graduate, and continuing professional development. The leadership option is designed to prepare those in academic medicine for leadership positions, for example, assistant/associate dean, program director (including assistant or associate), designated institutional officer and associate or vice chair for education. After completion of the certificate, the learner is no longer eligible to pursue the Master of Academic Medicine degree.
Each student completes the 12-unit certificate with 9 units of required course work and 3 units of elective course work from the courses available within the Master of Academic Medicine program. All courses should be selected with the approval of the learner’s adviser.
