Welcome to OCOM Pre-Clinical Education
Your first two years at Orlando College of Osteopathic Medicine are defined by active discovery. We’ve moved beyond traditional lectures to create a dynamic, integrated curriculum where basic science meets clinical application from day one.
Case-Based Learning (CBL) serves as the backbone of our curriculum. We believe that professional development is best achieved through active engagement rather than passive observation. By using clinical cases as a lens to explore basic sciences, we bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world clinical practice.
Our flipped classroom approach utilizes a dynamic Active Learning Cycle: students first engage in small group case discussions to identify key learning objectives, fill those knowledge gaps through self-directed study, and then reconvene to share insights and finalize diagnoses. This collaborative process ensures you graduate not just with a mastery of the sciences, but with the critical thinking and teamwork skills required for excellence in patient care.
