Characteristics of learning

POINT 1

Jointly conducted by all faculties
Practical IPE (Interprofessional Education)

In the current medical field, "multi-professional collaboration" is required, and mutual understanding between various medical professionals such as doctors and pharmacists, and a form of medical care in which each professional cooperates while demonstrating their expertise, are essential. Through tutorial learning (small group learning) conducted jointly by students from School of Medicine, School of Pharmacy, School of Nursing, and School of Rehabilitation, we will build the foundation for practicing "multi-professional collaboration."
