About 600 Israeli students are enrolled in the regular six years MD program; approximately 300 American students are enrolled in a four year MD program with a curriculum patterned after those of US medical Schools; about 200 students study dental medicine in a six year program towards the DMD degree and approximately 2000 students study health professions towards a first degree in Communication Disorders, Nursing, Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy.
In all its activities the Sackler Faculty of Medicine is committed to excellence. Sackler's educational philosophy reflects our belief that the most important task is to develop the skills of all our students to continue learning, and thus reach their maximum potential. Since 1999, the curriculum of our Medical Studies (Israeli program) has undergone major reforms.
The new program (Medicine 2000+) best presents our attempt to deepen self-learning and to stress humanistic and ethical aspects of medical practice and problem-solving strategies. Similar reforms are planned in other programs of the Faculty, including the New York State/American Program and the programs of the four departments of the School of Health Professions.
