The first two years of the College of Medicine – Phoenix MD program are structured in integrated blocks that focus on organ-systems in addition to courses focusing on basic doctoring skills and early exposure to patients. The second two years consist of required clinical clerkships in key disciplines and significant time for elective work. Basic and clinical sciences are interwoven with themes: public health, prevention and health promotion; ethics; biomedical informatics; behavioral and social sciences; evidence-based medicine; health equity; health care transformation; precision medicine; and interprofessional education and practice.
The first two years of medical school are assessed and graded on a Pass or Fail system. Student anonymity with peers and faculty is a key part of the first two years. The third and fourth years are assessed and graded on an Honors, High Pass, Pass or Fail system.
