oriented doctors who are competent to manage a patient holistically. The
block based spiral curriculum with three Phases makes it distinctive from

Harden's 10 questions of curriculum development
Method: This article analysed the USM medical curriculum in terms of
Harden's 10 questions of curriculum development. The 10 questions is a
comprehensive guide for curriculum development and a well developed

medical curriculum is characterized by the features of SPICES and stands
on the uniqueness of integration, problem based and spiral approach. The
spiral concept enables the school to implement the horizontal and vertical
integration of the different disciplines/subjects within the three Phases. The
Community and Family Case Study (CFCS) programme is providing
community oriented training, another unique aspect of the curriculum. It
also enables with an encouraging educational environment which is
favourable for its operation and profoundly influencing the outcome of the
programme

undergraduate students with nearly 300 full time academic staff. This SMS is
committed to enhance the competitive nature of the students by promoting their
intellectual and educational quests, providing confidence for continuing study and a
sense of social accountability. |
