CMED Orientation Week (Boot Camp)
Before classes begin, students are also expected to participate in a session of College-level meetings and activities that orient them to the specific aspects of studying medicine at QU. During this week they will receive their iPads and lab coats, and visit some of the hospitals and medical centers that they will be practicing at in the last three years of their studentship. They are introduced to the profession of medicine and medical studentship up close and to the educational methods and approaches used at the College of Medicine. They are also introduced the exciting opportunities that student life presents to them at CMED inside and outside the classroom.
