What makes Ohio State curriculum unique- Ohio State College of Medicine Narrator: From the moment you arrive at Ohio State, you’ll notice a difference. Here, students are integrated into patient care, not after the first two years, but in the first few weeks. We believe in a hands-on approach and through our innovative curriculum, our students are driven to lead, serve, and inspire. Zachary Smith (medical student): The curriculum is one of the most amazing parts about our medical school. Allison Akers (medical student): We’re able to get me in the clinic as early as our first year. Janice Bonsu (medical student): That’s something very unique to Ohio State and probably one of the biggest reasons I came here. I wanted to keep myself tethered in the why I got into medicine and that’s for the patients. Zachary Smith (medical student): They say that you learn by doing and I think that’s absolutely true. Having to apply what you’ve been learning, in your classes, to the person sitting in front of you. There’s nothing more important in my mind for learning the material. Narrator: At Ohio State College of Medicine, not only will you learn alongside some of the most renowned experts in medicine, you’ll have access to world-class facilities. The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center has been ranked as one of America’s best hospitals for more than twenty consecutive years by US News and World Report. We’re home to the 1 million square foot Arthur G. James Cancer hospital and Richard J Solove Research Institute. Our training programs feature state of the art technology, including 18,000 square foot clinical skills education and assessment center. Here, students practice procedures using the most advanced simulation technology available. Incredibly life-like medical mannequins simulate real-life situations in rooms that can be arranged to resemble, with remarkable detail, emergency room trauma bays, operating rooms, or intensive care units. Zachary Smith (medical student): We have such amazing facilities here that you can do research in almost anything you like, odds are that the person that you will be researching with is world renowned and so having that combination is incredible, really helps drive home the points and create lifelong passion for whatever domain you feel is most important.
