Faculty Assembly Curriculum (M.D.) Committee
The College of Medicine Curriculum Committee (COMCC) plays a pivotal role in ensuring the continuous quality improvement of the medical education program leading to the M.D. degree at the College of Medicine. Comprising a group of appointed and elected members, the committee's responsibilities encompass the comprehensive evaluation and enhancement of the curriculum, including content, pedagogy, assessment methods, and academic standards. Meeting regularly, typically on a monthly basis, the COMCC is committed to making necessary revisions and improvements to align with the College's medical education mission and available resources. This committee consists of voting members representing various aspects of medical education, including course directors, curriculum thread directors, and student representatives, among others. Their dedication to the quality and excellence of the M.D. program is evident through their rigorous reviews and policy recommendations, providing valuable insights and guidance to the Dean and the College.
