Attached you will find an invitation (in Norwegian) to a half-day seminar on the new curriculum in medicine Wednesday November 4th at 8:30 am to 12:00 pm. Place: Large auditorium, 3rd floor, Sentralblokken, Haukeland.
We meet for joint discussions and teaching input in dealing with the new curriculum. The main part of the seminar contains presentations of sketches by semester chairmen for 3. – 6. semester. The sketches will be sent to departments and other semester boards before the seminar, so the seminar will be the venue for discussions ahead of the program selection processing November 11th. Registration before 26 October.

The new curriculum in medicine has already been introduced. The first class started this fall, before most clinical departments were ready to wind up their summer vacation.
K2 is primarily responsible for three semesters;
5th semester with pathology, pharmacology, medical biochemistry, preclinical course and circulation / respiration (“Medicine”)
9th semester with gynecology / obstetrics, pediatrics and genetics
12th semester with integrated clinical training and ending with a practical exam
New in this curriculum is that in addition to the medical sciences, “academic pillar” is also emphasized and placed as independent entities on the curriculum. What does that mean?
The objectives can be summarized as providing the student with knowledge of medical science and research, research and ethics, skills in evaluating medical literature, dissemination of scientific results and how to perform statistical analysis. In other words: topics the scientists at K2 know a lot about and that it is nice to communicate and pass on to the younger generation! Teaching in academic subjects is scattered throughout many semesters and “belong” not only to the institute which is responsible for just that specific semester.
I do not know who holds specific expertise in the various academic subjects or how you personally want to contribute, but I hope to find good teachers to the various topics when we get them elaborated from the study planning committee. We don’t want IGS to have a monopoly on research teaching, do we?
This week the first part of this autumn’s teaching day for K1 / K2 was held, the final part will be on October 14th, welcome!

Apple released a new operating system X 10.11 (El Capitan) September 30th.
Users with Macs set up by the IT department should not upgrade to this version until we’ve tested it against our systems. We can not guarantee that the new version works against UiB services like printing and connecting to storage areas.
The upgrade is also not recommended for users with Macs they operate themselves if the computer will be used against our systems. This is until we have clarified “El Capitan” works with the University’s systems.
