OCOM 7940 - Research and Scholarly Advancement Fellowship
The purpose of this course is to provide an early research experience for students who have successfully completed the Year 1 medical school curriculum. This course will complement the current Patient-Centered Continuum (PCC) and Clinical Presentation Continuum (CPC) curricula currently offered by the College of Osteopathic Medicine. It will also better prepare the students to fulfill future research requirements, such as those in the CORE (Centers for Osteopathic Research & Education) and/or residencies and fellowships. Published research has shown that early research exposure for medical students improves their future attitudes and interest in research (Ley & Rosenberg, 2007), increases their productivity as physicians (Zier, Friedman, & Smith, 2006), better trains medical students to critically assess medical literature (Guillory & Sharp, 2003), and can help to interest medical students in research and academic careers (Solomon, et.al., 2003).
Course Outcomes
