McGill Faculty of Medicine e-curriculum

Welcome to the McGill Faculty of Medicine e-curriculum

The M.D., C.M. program is committed to making use of electronic media, multimedia learning objects and information technology in learning and teaching. In recognition of the wide variety of learning styles evident in our students, it is considered important to provide as broad a range of educational resources as possible. The Faculty of Medicine at McGill was very fortunate to have received, in 1997, a major donation from the Molson foundation for the development of computer enhanced learning and teaching methodologies. Since then, the faculty has converted major components of the mainstream curriculum to an electronic format, and enhanced the curriculum with multi-media learning objects (e.g. animations, audio and video clips, etc.) to facilitate teaching and learning.

The McGill Molson Medical Informatics Project, which is part of the Faculty of Medicine takes advantage of the latest web-technologies in order to accomplish the e-curriculum. Using Microsoft's new .NET framework, asp.NET, C#, XML and SQL, the goal of a true document management system has been achieved.

The Faculty of Medicine gratefully acknowledges the support of:

  • The Molson Foundation
  • The Class of 1981
  • The Class of 1977
  • The Class of 1973
