Key learning objectives were that students should be able to comprehend the moral values of scientific research, principles of study design and evidence appraisal, and the role of epidemiology in clinical practice. The curriculum included didactic lectures and group activities. The aim of the present study was to explore third-year students perceptions of the epidemiology curriculum. Methods: The program was evaluated at the end of our students third year through written evaluations using quantitative and qualitative methods. Two hundred fifty-five students (92.7%) of all third-year medical students participated in the evaluation. Quantitative methods were based on student ratings, whereas qualitative method assessments involved content analysis of the students open-ended statements. Findings: Based on responses to fixed response items, more than seven out of every 10 students appreciated the value of epidemiology to the work of physicians. More than six out of 10 students evaluated the curriculum favorably, but only a third indicated that they became more interested in epidemiology with time, and one-quarter found epidemiology challenging. In students open-ended responses, the most frequent positive statements referred to students heightened interest in research and Health: 1
2 appreciation of the curriculum s interactive teaching. Some students criticized the content as difficult and felt that there were too many didactic lectures. Conclusion: Based on their evaluations, students found our new epidemiology curriculum acceptable, and regarded it as relevant and valuable to their future practice. Key words: Epidemiology education, medical students, public health curriculum, critical appraisal, scientific research Context There is increasing recognition of the importance of learning epidemiology for future physicians (Marantz et al., 2003). Widely regarded as the basic science of public health (Stone, 1998; Marantz et al., 2003), epidemiology also provides a foundation for such important competencies as critical thinking, clinical judgment and the practice of evidence-based medicine (Waters, 1984; Stone, 1998; Marantz et al., 2003; Khan et al., 2006). However, since medical students do not always perceive the need to study epidemiology (Novick et al., 1985), teaching epidemiology to them can be a challenging task (Waters, 1984; Novick et al., 1985; Dannenberg et al., 2002; Marantz et al., 2003). Many innovative methods, such as analysis of current community health problems (Novick et al., 1985), case discussions (Marantz et al., 2003), and critical appraisal of the literature (Astin et al., 2002) have been used to make epidemiology more attractive to medical students. The introduction of clinical epidemiology ward rounds in a pediatrics rotation is one successful example of how to teach the relevance of epidemiology in clinical practice (Stone, 1998); however this strategy is not appropriate for early students still completing basic science courses. The experience of Aberdeen University showed that epidemiology could be integrated with primary care training by general practice-based tutors (Moffat et al., 2004). Another approach puts epidemiological concepts into a public health context and integrates epidemiology and public health with other subjects within the first years of medical education. The British Committee of the General Medical Council also emphasized interdisciplinary integration in public health teaching and noted that the assessment of population needs and the influence of environmental and social factors are relevant to many parts of the curriculum (General Medical Council, 1993). Objective The aim of the present study was to examine students perceptions of the epidemiology teaching they receive in the first three years of the undergraduate curriculum at Turkey s Ege University. Description of Epidemiology Education in Ege University Medical Faculty Ege University, with its half-century history, is the focus of educational and cultural life of Izmir, the third largest city in Turkey. There are two medical faculties in Izmir; the Ege University Medical Faculty (EUMF) is the older. EUMF introduced a new community-oriented curriculum in The content and overall structure of the new curriculum were based on the spiral curriculum concept. According to this concept, students revisit topics, themes and subjects at several stages of the curriculum in order to help reinforce and deepen knowledge as it fits with other topics being learned at each stage (Harden & Health: 2
3 Stamper, 1999; Moffat, 2004). The new curriculum was organized into four stages within the first three years. Stage one is an introduction to medical sciences, and stage two covers normal human structure, function and behavior. Stage two includes four blocks: respiratory/circulatory, excretory/lymphatic systems, digestive system/metabolism, and musculoskeletal/nervous systems and human life stage. Stage three is an introduction to the pathological sciences, and stage four addresses pathology of each of the four system blocks of stage two (Figure 1). Within this curricular framework, subjects that could not be horizontally integrated into other topics were covered under three domains. The educational committee called these domains vertical corridors ; they included Community Health and Field Implementations (CHFI), Interpersonal and Clinical Skills, and Medical Ethics and Medico-legal Responsibilities. The Public Health Department, an academic unit within the EUMF, is responsible for the CHFI, which spans the first three years of the curriculum. CHFI aims to improve students awareness of its topics and develop positive attitudes towards the social dimensions of medicine. It covers a broad range of public health topics, including epidemiology.
