Psychiatry in the Functionally Organized Undergraduate Curriculum
Abstract
The functionally organized curriculum permits the integration of psychiatry into most of the courses that comprise the first two years of medical school. Rather than presenting psychiatry to the student as a separate discipline or centering the acquisition of interpersonal skills around specific psychiatric diseases, this system introduces psychiatric concepts in their natural context, as they arise in conjunction with disease in functioning human organ systems.
