About the School
OUR MISSION: to be a vital component in the University of Louisville's quest to become a premier, nationally recognized metropolitan research university, to excel in the education of physicians and scientists for careers in teaching, research, patient care and community service, and to bring the fundamental discoveries of our basic and clinical scientists to the bedside.
Curriculum
ICM 2 is a cumulative two-year course concerning the clinical application of medical sciences. The course is intended to improve upon student skills in the patient encounter and doctor/patient relationship. The course also provides a study in formal decision analysis, culture, belief systems, ethics, clinical information management, psychiatry, and behavioral sciences. The student must complete a standardized patient examination assessing focused physical examination skills and abilities in eliciting patient histories at the end of the year. This course contributes to the student`s capacity for completing Step 1 of the USMLE board examination through testing modeled in a similar format. This course is divided into two sections that are graded separately.
Facilities
Five teaching hospitals are available to our students on the Health Science Campus. Students are able to take advantage of five different facilities to do their rotations in and a patient base of over 2000 hospital beds. We also have one of the largest Simulation Centers in the country - A Simulation Center for the 21st century with four programmable human patient simulators, four fully equipped patient simulation labs, six video cameras, full audio-visual broadcast and education capabilities and two observation/control rooms and four classrooms.

Why no Tier Rankings?
Although we could tier rank, over the past 25 years we've found no compelling benefit for ranking schools. Students are most successful when they prioritize personal and academic fit over school rank.
