Computer literacy is critical for all professionals, especially physicians.
Computers connect us to the world of information, providing us with communication linkage and data retrieval opportunities unimaginable by previous generations of doctors. To prepare our graduates for the twenty-first century, all students entering the Indiana University School of Medicine are required to own and effectively use computers. Demonstration of computer literacy will be part of the nine competencies required for graduation from Indiana University School of Medicine. The faculty believes that our students should be comfortable with computers prior to taking the examination. ERAS is used by most programs and is now available via the web.
