The proposed plan ensures that the use of computers will be part of the students' daily work routine. Resources are limited. At present, we do not have sufficient resources to teach Medical Informatics in a formal way to each class. Hence, we have to use existing resources efficiently. The responsibility for learning the Informatics skills will be left to the students after appropriate resources for learning are made available.
Evaluation is required.
Each student would be required to demonstrate competency in specific skills before graduating. Baseline skills will be determined and progress monitored over the 4-year curriculum.
