Overview

The academic curriculum for UIC Barcelona’s Medicine Degree is focused on training students based on active educational methodologies with a strong emphasis on information technologies and communication.

These teaching methodologies aim to train future doctors in what are known as transversal skills, including interpersonal communication skills, analysis and synthesis, the ability to work as part of a team, self learning, selective acquisition of information, developing a critical sense, etc.

The curriculum that is presented wants to take advantage of its novelty to introduce all those characteristics that are convenient for the training of a doctor of the 21st century and that are more difficult to implement in schools with a strong tradition and history:

Integration of subjects.
Multidisciplinarity and interdependence.
Relevance of local and regional factors (own culture, immigration, etc.).
Internalization of the search as an instrument of personal and social progress, especially in improving the health of the environment.
Early contact with the world of medicine and the healthcare system.

This study plan presents three large groups or chapters of competencies that are named based on what they describe:

What the doctor is capable of doing.
How the doctor does what he is capable of doing.

How the doctor does, correctly, what he is capable of doing.
