An integrated teaching approach of medical education is one of the unique features of Faculty of Medicine. During the first three phases, teaching in basic sciences and clinical sciences is integrated. A particular subject e.g the cardiovascular system is taught with its anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology and clinical aspects in an integrated and coordinated program. In this system, the artificial border between different disciplines and the so-called pre-clinical and clinical fields is minimized.
