Teaching Opportunities
The Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine offers opportunities for faculty involvement at various points and a variety of settings throughout the curriculum. Students complete a three-year core curriculum, meeting rigorous standardized learning outcomes. This competency-based curriculum works to instill the idea of lifelong learning and self-directed learning as the students reach their goals.
Each phase of the curriculum offers a different opportunity for faculty to engage with students. Phase 1 consists of teaching either in your office or both large and small group settings. Phase 2 offers opportunities for teaching in your office or hospital or through electives. In Phase three faculty can develop and lead intensive electives or work with students in research.
