The Masters in Medical Education (MME) is a competitive, 30 semester-hour program coordinated through the Office of Consultation and Research in Medical Education at the Carver College of Medicine. Learners enrolled in the masters program take seven core courses covering topics including educational measurement in medical education, current issues in medical education, instructional design and technology, teaching methods, clinical teaching, assessment in medical education and educational research and evaluation as well as electives. In addition to coursework, the participant develops a summative portfolio project.
During residency, residents have the opportunity to complete coursework in the MME program and work towards earing a certificate (Medical Education, Graduate Certificate). This coursework will contribute to a Masters of Medical Education if a resident chooses to pursue further studies. The residency will cover the cost of these classes while the student is a resident.
