The school is home to 16 Nobel Laureates, boasts $334.2 million in sponsored research project funding, claims 1,314 sponsored research projects, and works with more than 270 industry partners. Worth noting, too, is that the institution was the first in the country to offer an MD\/PhD dual-degree program, a model others have since adopted.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CWRUSM has 938 full-time students (51.3 percent female \/ 48.7 percent male), 2,822 full-time faculty on staff, and a faculty-student ratio of 3:1.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beginning in 1952, the school initiated the most advanced medical curriculum in the country at the time through an integrated education approach, which focused on organ systems and team teaching in the preclinical curriculum. Case Western Reserve\u2019s tradition of offering cutting-edge education continues to this day. In 2006, the institution launched its Western Reserve2 Curriculum (WR2), which emphasizes self-directed learning and collaboration between small groups of students by integrating four themes of research and scholarship. Students engage with these four themes\u2014clinical mastery, teamwork and leadership, civic professionalism, and health advocacy\u2014through team-based learning activities, anatomy and dissection sessions, clinical skills training, and patient-based activities.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Students looking to build relationships, influence university policy, and support the local community will benefit from a choice of more than 35 student organizations and a variety of activities. Events like Doc Opera, a fundraising event and variety show written and directed entirely by CWR graduate students, allows students to showcase their hidden talents while helping the local community. Proceeds from the event, which is in its 35<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> year, go towards the institution\u2019s Free Clinic of Greater Cleveland.<\/span><br \/>\n<a id=\"curriculum\"><\/a><div  style='padding-bottom:10px; ' class='av-special-heading av-special-heading-h3    avia-builder-el-2  el_after_av_heading  el_before_av_heading  '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >The Curriculum at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine<\/h3><div class='special-heading-border'><div class='special-heading-inner-border' ><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Case Western Reserve School of Medicine offers students a choice of three pathways into medicine: the University Program, the College Program, and the MD\/PhD program.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>The University Program<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> curriculum (culminating in an MD degree), which is the oldest and largest at CWRUSM, begins with eight-blocks of training and coursework in foundational medicine and health. The first block, Becoming a Doctor, includes early field experiences, but is mainly comprised of courses in population health, epidemiology, biostatistics, and bioethics. Blocks two through six follow a similar pattern, but include a Clinical Immersion Week during which students are assigned to different clinical sites. There, they shadow clinical faculty in local hospitals, observe patient procedures, and participate in exercises with electronic simulators and Standardized Patients\u2014actors trained to behave as patients presenting with various symptoms. Each block culminates in an assessment week to evaluate student comprehension and determine their readiness for the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaptest.com\/study\/usmle\/all-about-the-usmle-step-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">USMLE exams<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Block seven includes courses in anatomy, histopathology, radiology, and clinical mastery. Foundations of Clinical Medicine, the eighth and final block, aims to help students develop a broad range of clinical and professional capabilities. Clinical rotations begin in the spring of the second year and provide students with opportunities to experience hands-on patient care in the fields of family, geriatric, pediatric, and emergency medicine, as well as others. Internships and advanced electives courses follow.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Students interested in careers as physician-investigators may be interested in the five-year <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/case.edu\/medicine\/admissions-programs\/md-programs\/college-program\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">College Program<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, which equips graduates with qualifications in biomedical research.
