The Office of Curricular Affairs within the Saint Louis University School of Medicine maintains the academic policies for the M.D. program.
Our office provides students with course syllabi, oversees the production of all exams and maintains M.D. program course evaluation records. It also coordinates site visits from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education Accreditation (LCME) and compiles the LCME annual report.

The content of each course within SLU’s M.D. curriculum is determined by its director, in consultation with the teaching faculty and in keeping with national guidelines. The course directors also choose the most appropriate teaching modalities (lectures, laboratories, computer assignments, small group problem-solving sessions, hands-on clinical experiences, etc.) based on the course content and faculty expertise. This organizational structure has produced an overall plan of study that can be best characterized as a "hybrid curriculum," containing elements of both conventional and problem-based teaching programs.
Almost every course in SLU’s Year 1 and Year 2 medical school curriculum is taught by a team of faculty (sometimes as many as 20 or more) from multiple departments. Each faculty member brings his or her expertise into the lecture hall, laboratory and small group activities to provide you with the best foundation of basic science and clinical knowledge and experience possible.
The management of this curriculum is centralized so that the school, rather than individual departments, defines the educational policies and determines the content of the M.D. degree program. The Curriculum Committee is responsible for the design, implementation and evaluation of the entire undergraduate medical curriculum. This committee is chaired by School of Medicine’s associate dean for undergraduate medical education and is made up of faculty and students.
