UA COM & the LCME Self-study

 
What does the UA COM do better than just about any other medical school in the world? 
 
Since our last self-study for accreditation (2004) a lot has changed. This is certainly true of education and funding; the millennial generation; the leadership changes; the implementation of ArizonaMed curriculum (2006) and the Phoenix track (2007); and technology (can you say Facebook?).
 
The self-study process allows us to carefully review all aspects of the COM to reaffirm and reframe our vision and mission in light of these changes. Ultimately, this process will result in improving that which distinguishes the UA COM from the rest.

 

Thank you,
