Abstract:
Modern medical education in the United States starts early and is in the leading position in the world. Learning the framework of current medical education and the relevant experience in the United States will help us improve the teaching system in medical colleges and universities in China. The University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) in the United States has rich teaching resources, various forms of lessons and adopts diversified teaching methods such as traditional lectures, flipped classroom, role playing and so on. Due to its advanced teaching system, teachers can carry out classroom tests conveniently and quickly so as to promote students' self-learning. Guest lectures given by front-line staff from Department of Health and Human Services, hospitals and laboratories are a common teaching model in UNMC. In addition, the construction of multidisciplinary education platform is of great reference value in improving the public health education and medical curriculum system in China.
