Intersession

The mandatory curricular time that covers longitudinal elements of the curriculum, is designed so that students do not miss any clerkship duties. The week-long intensive activities are designed for integration of KSA acquired in clerkships, reflection on how clinical experiences inform future practice and identifying areas of interest for future research and/or advocacy.
