Name C 5.1-10 University of Beira interior: Medical Education in the Faculty of Health Sciences
Description Authors: Manuel José dos Santos Silva, Miguel Castelo Branco

Medical education is one of the fields in which great changes have taken place in recent years, in Europe and particularly in Portugal. The Faculty of Health Sciences of the University of Beira Inte-rior (UBI) was created in order to implement a new medical curriculum, featuring innovative peda-gogical methods and training models. The study plan adopts an educational strategy based on learn-ing through objectives; it is student-centred, problem-based, with vertical and horizontal integra-tion, promoting an early introduction to the health system and to patient contact, and aiming at preparing the students to work in multidisciplinary teams. New information and communication technologies are important tools for students’ learning. The Medical Education Office manages the course. A new building has been designed and constructed to fit the purpose, incorporating a re-search centre in health sciences essential for all aspects of learning.
