许多医学课程现在包括为学生提供奖学金机会的课程，这些奖学金超出了传统的核心课程。这些学术集中（SC）计划在重点和结构上差异很大，但它们的共同目标是培养具有改进的分析，创造性和批判性思维技能的医生。在这篇文章中，作者探讨了必修和选修SC课程的模式。他们通过浏览医学院的网站和直接联系各个项目的代表来收集信息。此外，他们还深入讨论了布朗大学沃伦阿尔珀特医学院的SC课程;南佛罗里达大学医学院;加州大学旧金山弗朗西斯科;和斯坦福大学医学院。作者描述了每个项目的重点，参与，持续时间，集中，顶点要求，教师参与和集中的领域。成立的目的是为了应对美国的各种挑战。S.医学教育体系，这四个程序提供了一系列可能的模式，学校正在考虑建立一个SC程序。虽然缺乏关于SC计划影响的数据，但作者认为，这种类型的计划有可能通过学术，深入探究和纵向教师指导来显着影响医学生的教育。
Many medical curricula now include programs that provide students with opportunities for scholarship beyond that provided by their traditional, core curricula. These scholarly concentration (SC) programs vary greatly in focus and structure, but they share the goal of producing physicians with improved analytic, creative, and critical-thinking skills. In this article, the authors explore models of both required and elective SC programs. They gathered information through a review of medical school Web sites and direct contact with representatives of individual programs. Additionally, they discuss in-depth the SC programs of the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University; the University of South Florida College of Medicine; the University of California, San Francisco; and Stanford University School of Medicine. The authors describe each program's focus, participation, duration, centralization, capstone requirement, faculty involvement, and areas of concentration. Established to address a variety of challenges in the U. S. medical education system, these four programs provide an array of possible models for schools that are considering the establishment of an SC program. Although data on the impact of SC programs are lacking, the authors believe that this type of program has the potential to significantly impact the education of medical students through scholarly, in-depth inquiry and longitudinal faculty mentorship.
