The Pritzker Curriculum
The Pritzker curriculum embodies three principles:
- An emphasis on active learning;
- Integration among disciplines when possible and appropriate; and
- A requirement for a scholarly project for all medical students.
To further promote an atmosphere of shared learning and collaboration, the Pritzker curriculum utilizes a Pass/Fail grading system.
