About the University
On April 29, 2011, in the Governor’s Ceremonial
Office at the Ohio State House, Governor John
Kasich publicly signed House Bill 139 as approved
by the Ohio General Assembly to officially change
the name of the Northeastern Ohio Universities
College of Medicine (NEOUCOM) to Northeast
Ohio Medical University (NEOMED).
development of new knowledge through
research in the biomedical, community health
and behavioral sciences; and the provision of
community service and health education
throughout the Northeast Ohio region.
Vision
Northeast Ohio recognizes the University’s
history, heritage and the geographic area it
serves;
Medical in recognition of its education, research
and service mission in medicine, pharmacy,
graduate research and graduate studies;
University in recognition of its three colleges in
medicine, pharmacy and graduates studies and
its status as one of the 14 public universities
serving Ohio citizens.
To be the premier community-based
interprofessional health sciences university in the
United States.
Values
Our values are reflected in the Six Cs of our
educational, research and work environment:
Competence, Communication, Caring, Curiosity,
Character and Community.
Importance of Diversity to our
Mission
Accreditation – University
The University is accredited regionally by The
Higher Learning Commission of the North Central
Association (NCA) of Colleges and Schools. The
NCA evaluates how the University fulfills its
mission and achieves its strategic goals by
assessing the educational aspect, governance,
administration, financial stability, admissions,
student services, institutional resources, student
learning, and institutional effectiveness.
NEOMED embraces diversity with its benefits and
values which entails a work and learning
environment that is grounded in respect and
inclusion of all. Diversity encompasses race,
culture, ethnicity, gender, socio-economic status,
religion, age, sexual orientation, disability, and
military/veteran status. Everyone is diverse and
brings unique aspects of who they are to the
NEOMED Community. We value the unique
qualities that each person possess.
The University is fully accredited by the NCA. Its
most recent comprehensive evaluation took
place in April 2013.
NEOMED believes that it is critical to have
educational programs that inspire learners and
educators to understand and interact with the
diverse world of patients, one another, and the
health care team to improve the health of
individuals and communities. Central to
NEOMED’s mission is the diversity of the
students, faculty, and staff. The NEOMED
Diversity Council ensures the University is
dedicated to increasing and sustaining a diverse
learning and work environment that is grounded
in respect and inclusion. The Council functions as
a catalyst for the identification and development
of initiatives for improvements in diversity at
every level of the University. The Council also
serves as a forum for diversity-related concerns
For information about degree/program-specific
accreditation, please refer to each college’s

Mission, Vision, Values –
University
Mission Statement
The Northeast Ohio Medical University improves
the health, economy, and quality of life
in Northeast Ohio through the medical,
pharmacy and health sciences education of
students and practitioners at all levels; the
1
from the University's work force and education
community.
The William G. Wasson, M.D., Center for Clinical
Skills Training, Assessment and Scholarship is a
unique self-contained facility that enables
students to assess, research and learn clinical
skills. Standardized patients – individuals trained
to role-play a variety of clinical cases – are used
to evaluate medical students’ ability to take
patient histories, perform physicals,
communicate with patients and determine
diagnosis and treatment. The Center also uses
computerized robotics to simulate patient
response to therapeutic interventions.
The NEOMED Diversity Council leads many
activities, some of which include developing a
campus-wide plan for diversity, enhancing
organizational competency of diversity, building a
welcoming and affirming environment for all
people, and providing a forum to address
diversity issues within the NEOMED community.
In tandem with the efforts of the Diversity
Council is the support and leadership from the
Director of Diversity Affairs, who is responsible
for implementing practices, processes, support
services, and programmatic and educational
initiatives that support diversity and create a
welcoming and inclusive environment at
NEOMED so that diversity and inclusion become
a part of the fiber of the institution. The Director
leads the charge to advocate for all students,
including students from underrepresented
groups, and to build bridges of understanding
between individuals and groups in general and
underrepresented minority students in particular
in order to develop a more culturally competent
and globally aware campus community.
In 2009, The BeST Center was established at
NEOMED with a $5 million grant from The
Margaret Clark Morgan Foundation of Hudson,
Ohio. The Center's mission is to ensure that
people with schizophrenia and related disorders
maximize their ability to achieve recovery by
receiving early intervention treatments shown to
be best practices. To do so, the Center works
with clinical partners from Summit County, Ohio,
and the surrounding areas.
The University recently constructed a four story,
80,000 square foot Research and Graduate
Education Building to campus that includes stateof-the art open biomedical laboratories to
support collaborative research along with
sophisticated core facilities. In addition, there
are faculty offices, areas for students and
technicians, seminar and small group conference
and teaching rooms.
The Rootstown Campus
Rootstown, in rural Portage County, Ohio, was
selected as the site for the University because of
its central location among the partner
universities and clinical campuses. The 110-acre
campus houses the University’s administrative
offices, the departments of basic medical
sciences, community health sciences and
pharmaceutical sciences, and the clinical
departments of family medicine, internal
medicine and pharmacy practice.
Additionally, the University has opened its first
on-campus residential housing. “The Village at
NEOMED” is located on the northwest corner of
the NEOMED campus. The 270,000 square foot
luxury residential housing village includes private
parking and paved walkways for easy access to
existing campus facilities. More information is
available online at
http://www.thevillageatneomed.com/
State-of-the-art facilities range from the Dr.
Chatrchai and Eleanor Watanakunakorn Medical
Research Building, housing research laboratories
and classrooms for collaborative research
projects among clinical and basic sciences faculty,
to the Ocasek Medical Library, which has more
than 72,000 volumes and access to over 7100
electronic journal titles. Recent renovations to
the lecture halls and the addition of the
pharmacy labs and Multi-Disciplinary Labs have
enhanced the educational setting for students.

Academic Support
In order to achieve academic success in
professional school, students must adapt
academic strategies and self-management skills
that differ from what was necessary for
undergraduate success. Academic support
assists students through the identification and
evolution of current academic practice into a
more efficient and effective study process. This
program promotes students’ academic success
through various services, including:
•
Individual academic strategy
consultation and planning
•
Peer tutoring
•
Identification of university, community,
and online academic resources
•
Lunchtime seminars for course exam
and licensure exam preparation
The Office of Academic Affairs
The Office of Academic Affairs manages the
implementation of the educational program for
the M.D. and Pharm.D. degrees. The staff
provides direct support to the curricular
committees and coordinates the details of
routine educational operations. A member of the
Office serves as support to each course in the
curriculum. The office administers, scores,
analyzes and reports the results of all
examinations and provides data on overall
student performance. Routine surveys on course
and faculty evaluations are managed and
reported to course directors. In general, many of
the problems and issues that arise within the
educational program are identified first through
the Office of Academic Affairs which is in turn
offer the data and preliminary responses to
individual faculty, course directors, committees
and other offices. The office also responds when
others identify issues and require data, support
and solutions.

celebrating and recognizing aspects of various
cultures, infusing cultural competency in the
University’s curriculum, and co-curricular
programming. Diversity at NEOMED means
valuing community. We accomplish this through
a number of ways including a campus-wide
philosophy that everyone matters and everyone
brings a different perspective and contributions
to our community. The President and Director of
Diversity Affairs’ Diversity Statements emphasize
how diversity and inclusion strengthens the
university, as well as, allow everyone to be
engaged in the university community. The
Director of Diversity Affairs works collaboratively
with campus departments and academicians to
increase cultural competencies, improve equity
and inclusion, recognize achievement and
leadership in diversity education, and encourage
global awareness of the world beyond ourselves.
The NEOMED Diversity Council works
collaboratively with the Director to positively
affect change. Diversity Council initiatives i focus
on creating a welcoming and inclusive
environment, support for diverse issues and
needs, the importance of increasing our student,
faculty and staff diversity, and the need for
greater cultural competencies in health care
professionals.

variety of formal and informal settings.
Career Development
Career development is an integral part of the
formal and informal curriculum at the University.
The career development curriculum is designed
to assist students in synthesizing their knowledge
and self-understanding with their personal career
decision. The goals of career development
curriculum are to help students:
• Develop the knowledge, skills and
attitudes required for making good
career decisions
• Develop life planning activities which
integrate and balance career with
family, leisure, friendship and
community
•
Understand various specialties and
settings within the medical and
pharmacy professions in order to make
good residency and career decisions
Health and Wellness
A successful transition into professional school
requires the ability to maintain a healthful
balance between one’s academic and personal
life, however, matriculation into professional
school too often leads to the abandonment of
healthy practices. The health and wellness
program is based on the concept that to practice
and promote preventive medicine, students must
first understand and integrate wellness practices
into their own lives. In addition, Health and
Wellness staff works in conjunction with the
Disabilities and Accommodations Committee to
review and register student requests for disability
accommodations. The goals of our Health &
Wellness program are to:
• Communicate the importance of
achieving balance between one’s
academic and personal life and
demonstrate strategies for maintaining
this balance throughout professional
school and beyond
• Provide personal counseling support
These goals are met through didactic, selfassessment, experiential, clinical, and reflective
activities. Didactic sessions and workshops
offered include a Personality Type Workshop
using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator,
CV/Resume and interviewing workshops, and
career and residency fairs.
Diversity Affairs
Being culturally competence and appreciating
diversity is critical to students embarking in the
healthcare fields. Preparing NEOMED students
for a diverse and global society will allow them to
be world class healthcare providers. We

maintain personal wellness goals
Teach students healthy coping strategies
Promote a healthy and active lifestyle
through good nutrition and exercise
Maintain students’ immunization and
insurance records for the institution
Improve student’s experience on the
NEOMED campus environment by
accommodating students who may have
a disability
Each student who is admitted is expected not
only to already possess a well-developed concept
of conduct, honor and personal integrity but also
to maintain it throughout his or her practice. This
responsibility encompasses all public, academic
and professional activities of the student,
particularly in regard to the handling of
privileged information derived from patients and
hospital records. Each student shall demonstrate
behavior that, by its nature and interpretation, is
considered to be appropriate for a professional.
Such appropriate behavior includes, but is not
limited to, the demonstration of good judgment,
personal insight and accountability, responsibility
to patients, ability to recognize personal
limitations and ability to function under pressure.
Students also must be aware of the social impact
of their behavior as a professional student and
later as physicians and pharmacists. Participation
in the conduct code and the Student Honor Code
is expected by all students enrolled in the
University. Student annually subscribe in writing
to the principles of the code.
Student Advocacy
The chief student affairs officer provides
leadership and coordination for all efforts
pertaining to student affairs and services, and
serves as the students’ chief representative to
the faculty and administration, and as the faculty
adviser to the student government. Advocating
for students entails maintaining a studentcentered approach to decision making, creation
of procedures and policies that provide
consistent and fair treatment of students,
ensuring student rights are protected while
holding students responsible for actions that may
be inconsistent with the expectations and
policies of the institution. In addition the chief
student affairs officer also is responsible for
placing of senior medical students into
residencies, recruitment and for academic
promotion administration.
Student Development and
Leadership
It is vital that NEOMED students have advanced
opportunities to develop into citizen leaders with
a global perspective on health care issues.
Therefore, the Office of Student Affairs’ goal is to
meet the diverse needs of NEOMED students by
creating and communicating a welcoming
environment that accepts differences, promoting
tolerance and respect for others, and by creating
opportunities for students to learn from each
other. Continually students develop through
campus community-building activities, leadership
development, student organization involvement,
and community service opportunities.
Student Conduct and Professional
Behavior
Students at NEOMED are expected to maintain
the highest level of conduct and professionalism
in their actions both in and out of the classroom,
as well as in activities associated with the
institution. In addition, students in professional
education are expected to develop and maintain
the ethical and moral values consistent with all
social behavior, but especially those values that
must be an integral part of the working attitude
of professionals in the field of medicine. Further,
it is implicit in the very purpose of the University
that honesty and integrity be part of a student’s
behavior throughout his or her education, as well
as after formal education is completed. Lack of
professional behavior, including unethical
behavior of any sort, is contrary to the
Student development and leadership also
supports the efforts of peer-elected councils and
committees and over 60 student organizations.
Such NEOMED leadership roles and opportunities

College of Medicine
Medicine
History – College of Medicine
In August 1973, the Ohio General Assembly
passed legislation establishing a College of
Medicine made up of a unique consortium of
three state- supported universities in
Northeastern Ohio — the University of Akron,
Kent State University and Youngstown State
University.
The Liaison Committee on Medical Education
(LCME) is solely responsible for accrediting
programs that lead to the M.D. degree.
Accreditation by the LCME is required to receive
federal grants and to participate in
federal loan programs. State boards of licensure
require physicians to be graduates of LCME
accredited medical schools.
In 1974, Rootstown was chosen the site for the
basic medical sciences campus.
In 1975, 42 students were selected for the
charter class and began undergraduate studies at
the three consortium universities. In September
1977, charter class members began the medical
phase of their studies at the newly completed
Rootstown campus, with the class size increased
to 48 by the addition of students who had
already completed a traditional premedical
curriculum. Commencement for the College’s
charter class occurred on May 26, 1981. Since
that time, the College’s class size has increased to
150 students.
The College of Medicine is fully accredited by the
LCME. The last comprehensive site visit took
place in March 2011. The LCME continued the
accreditation of NEOMED’s education program
leading to the MD degree for an eight-year term.
The next LCME comprehensive site visit will take
place during the 2018-2019 academic year.
Medicine
The mission of the Northeast Ohio Medical
University College of Medicine is to graduate
exemplary physicians oriented to primary care
practice and other needed specialties. We strive
to improve the quality of health care in Northeast
Ohio through:
• education of medical students
• support for residency programs in our
affiliated hospitals
• continuing professional development of
our staff, faculty and regional health
professionals
• scholarship, including original research
• community service programs
• stewardship for the health of Northeast
Ohio
The overall goal of the College of Medicine is to
graduate well-qualified doctors of medicine who
will be able to excel in any field of specialization,
but who have had significant orientation to the
principles and practices of primary care in the
community setting.
Essential Functions – College of
Medicine
The primary mission of the College of Medicine is
to provide all students with the training to
become qualified physicians oriented to the
practice of medicine at the community level. As
such, faculty are responsible to develop and
implement a standards of the practice of
medicine.
31
Preparation and training to become a physician
requires each student to understand and meet
the essential functions required for admission,
continuation and graduation identified below.
The faculty has developed the course
requirements and activities to provide critical
elements of physician training. It is expected that
students will participate in all course activities
(including but not limited to lectures, seminars,
laboratories, clinics, physical examinations,
patient procedures) and adhere to individual
hospital rules and regulations as well as College
of Medicine policies regarding these activities.
Learning is based on active student participation
rather than simple observation and /or note
taking.
effectively in oral and written form with all
members of the healthcare team.
Motor: Candidates should have sufficient motor
function to elicit information from patients by
palpation, auscultation, percussion, and other
diagnostic maneuvers. A candidate should be
able to execute motor activities reasonably
required to provide general care, to perform
diagnostic procedures, and to provide emergency
treatment to patients. Examples of emergency
treatment reasonably required of physicians are
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the
administration of intravenous medication, and
the application of pressure to stop bleeding. Such
actions require coordination of both gross and
fine muscular movements, equilibrium, and
functional use of the senses of touch and vision.
A candidate for the M.D. degree must be able to
demonstrate intellectual-conceptual, integrative
and quantitative abilities; skills in observation,
communication, motor functions; and mature
behavioral and social attributes. Technological
compensation can be made for some handicaps
in certain of these areas, but a candidate should
be able to perform in a reasonably independent
manner without a trained intermediary. The use
of a trained intermediary means that a
candidate’s judgment must be mediated by
someone else’s power of selection and
observation.
Intellectual-Conceptual, Integrative, and
Quantitative Abilities: These abilities include
measurement, calculation, reasoning, analysis
and synthesis. Problem solving, the critical skill
demanded of physicians, requires all of these
intellectual abilities. In addition, the candidate
should be able to comprehend three-dimensional
relationships and to understand the spatial
relationships of structures.
Behavioral and Social Attributes: A candidate
must possess the emotional health required for
full utilization of intellectual abilities, the exercise
of good judgment, the prompt completion of all
responsibilities attendant to the diagnosis and
care of patients, and the development of mature,
sensitive and effective relationships with
patients. Candidates must be able to tolerate
physically taxing workloads and to function
effectively under stress. They must be able to
adapt to changing environments, to display
flexibility, and to learn to function in the face of
uncertainties inherent in the clinical problems of
many patients. Commitment to excellence,
service orientation, goal setting skills, academic
ability, self-awareness, integrity and
interpersonal skills are all personal qualities that
are assessed during the admission and education
process. Because the nature of medical
education is based on a mentoring process,
candidates are expected to be able to accept
criticism and respond by appropriate
modification of behavior.
Observation: The candidate must be able to
observe demonstrations and experiments in the
basic sciences, including but not limited to
physiologic and pharmacologic demonstrations in
animals, microbiologic cultures, and microscopic
studies of microorganisms and tissues in normal
and pathologic states. A candidate must be able
to observe a patient accurately at a distance and
close at hand. Observations necessitate the
functional use of the sense of vision and somatic
sensation. It is enhanced by the functional use of
the sense of smell.
Communication: A candidate should be able to
speak, to hear and to observe patients in order to
elicit information, describe changes in mood,
activity, and posture, and perceive nonverbal
communications. A candidate must be able to
communicate effectively and sensitively with
patients. Communication includes not only
speech but also reading and writing. The
candidate must be able to communicate

Handicapped individuals are encouraged to
apply. Applicants whose responses indicate that
they cannot meet the expectations will be
further reviewed by the Admissions Committee
to assess the extent of difficulty and the potential
for compensating for such difficulty.

baccalaureate curriculum at CSU will also include
urban health courses and seminars. Because
accepted students have a bachelor’s degree,
most of the required coursework will include the
traditional pre-medical and life sciences courses.
Should additional related but non-science
coursework be needed, students will be informed
upon acceptance and required to complete those
courses before beginning medical school. At
NEOMED, students will take the four-year doctor
of medicine curriculum.
Doctor of Medicine (M.D.)
Baccalaureate/M.D. (Bacc/M.D.)
The MD Curriculum extends over four years and
includes basic medical sciences, clinical sciences,
community health sciences, and psychosocial
sciences.
This non-accelerated combined degree program
allows undergraduates from Cleveland State
University, Miami University, Hiram College, and
Central State University of most majors to apply
for admission to the Bacc/M.D. program which
includes a reserved seat at NEOMED’s College of
Medicine. Students may apply to the Bacc/M.D.
program when they have attained sophomore
standing at their undergraduate institution.
Bachelor of Science/Doctor of
Medicine (B.S./M.D.)
The undergraduate curriculum (C1 and C2) of the
B.S./M.D. program extends over a 26-month
period at each of the BS/MD partner
universities and provides a strong background in
the physical and life sciences and introductory
studies in the humanities and social sciences.
Each pathway program may have a particular
focus, such as urban or rural health; students will
begin coursework during their undergraduate
years on that track, and will continue to build on
it throughout their time in medical school.
The information regarding each of these
pathways is subject to change as the programs
evolve.
During the undergraduate Phase 1, students
have the opportunity to meet with members of
the faculty of the College of Medicine and
become familiar with the social issues in
medicine and the role of the physician in health
care. These activities encourage students to
examine their role in society as future
physicians.
Medicine
After completing this phase, students are
considered for promotion to the medical phase
of the curriculum.

Degree requirements – M.D.
(3) All students enrolling at any point in the M.D.
degree program should do so with the clear
understanding that they are required either to
have completed a baccalaureate degree or to
complete the requirements of the B.S. degree
prior to, or concurrent with, the receipt of the
M.D. degree.
The granting of the Doctor of Medicine degree by
NEOMED is contingent upon the
recommendation to the board of trustees of the
Committee on Academic Progress and Promotion
(CAPP) and the dean of the College.
(4) All medical students are required to take Step
1, Step 2CK and Step 2CS of the United States
Medical Licensure Exam (USMLE) and to achieve
a satisfactory score on these examinations as
determined by the faculty of the College.
Students should refer to the most recent Student
Handbook for current CAPP standards, policies
and procedures.
The recommendation of CAPP is based upon the
following criteria and processes:
(1) All students in the College of Medicine are
required to achieve at least a passing grade in all
courses required by the faculty for the awarding
of the doctor of medicine degree.
(5) Failure to meet any of the standards of the
College will result in remedial or other actions,
including dismissal.
Residency requirement
(2) In addition to the acquisition of the basic
tools of skill and knowledge, the College of
Medicine emphasizes the importance of the
maintenance of emotional stability, a practice of
integrity, a habit of critical analysis, a spirit of
inquiry and an expressed sense of understanding
and empathy for others. This reflects the concern
of the College for the appropriate development
of human qualities and commitment to
professional standards as well as development of
technical competence in its students and
graduates. Evaluation of students and their
progress during the course of studies will include
all of these criteria.
The minimum residence requirement for the
M.D. degree is at least two years of consecutive
full-time study and involvement in
undergraduate medical studies and must include
the third medical year. Students admitted to the
program by the Advanced Standing Admissions
committee, for example, particularly those
admitted into the third medical year, should be
especially aware of this requirement. This
requirement in no way precludes the taking of
electives outside of the University’s system, but
administrative transfer during the senior year
will not be permitted for such advanced standing
students.

M1 Curriculum
develop, implement, and evaluate a community
project through inter-professional teams.
Instruction in the basic medical science courses
emphasizes the normal structure and function of
the human body, the mechanisms by which these
are maintained and the factors leading to injury
and disease. The behavioral sciences program
teaches the normal development of an
individual’s mental, personal and social
capabilities, as well as principles for application in
clinical problem solving and in the medical
interview. Interdisciplinary instruction also is
given in geriatrics, community health and human
sexuality. M1 and M2 studies are concentrated
primarily on the Rootstown campus.
Evidence‐Based Medicine 1 presents an
introduction to clinical study designs, data
analysis, and the application of a wide variety of
reference materials and. The student will gain
insight into the appropriate use of evidence and
resource materials in clinical practice. Students
will learn the importance of primary, tertiary and
internet resources, as well as to how to critically
evaluate research‐based evidence. Some of the
areas in which students will gain competence
are: specification of a research question,
selection of study design, formulation and
literature support of a hypothesis, descriptive
and inferential statistics, clinical trials, and
reporting data and information.
Brain, Mind, and Behavior
A solid understanding of the normal anatomy of
the central nervous system is critical to an
understanding of the abnormal. This course
integrates basic information relative to the
structure and function of the central nervous
system with clinical material commonly
encountered in the practice of medicine. The
course begins with an introduction to the basic
anatomy and physiology of the central nervous
system. The course continues with an emphasis
on functional concepts along with structure. A
number of clinical correlation sessions are
included, in which case studies of patients whose
central nervous systems are malfunctioning in
one way or another are discussed. The later part
of the course covers higher functions and system
studies such as learning, memory, emotions,
motor systems and also includes relevant
psychiatry and neuropharmacology. In addition,
relevant behavioral sciences and concepts of
drug abuse are covered. A laboratory exercise
continues through the course to help integrate
concepts to actual nervous system structure.
Evidence Based Medicine will introduce students
to principles of drug information and scientific
literature evaluation using concepts of evidence
based medicine. This course provides an
opportunity to apply knowledge of electronic
databases, research design and literature
evaluation to make effective journal club
presentations. At the end of this course, students
will be able to actively evaluate the clinical
literature and understand the importance of
critical analysis of the biomedical literature.
These core principles will be reinforced in
clinically-based interdisciplinary conferences
through the remainder of the curriculum.
Foundations of Clinical Medicine I & II
This course introduces medical students to
psychosocial principles and clinical practices for
effective patient care. The curriculum derives
from the behavioral sciences and clinical
medicine. Spanning the M1 year, FCM comprises
two parts. The first part, FCM I (SeptemberDecember), introduces students to medical
interviewing and general physical examination.
The second part, FCM II (January-June), continues
this learning by (a) considering human behavior
in health and illness as it affects clinical
encounters and (b) introducing students to
primary care of the patient in an ambulatory
clinical setting.
Community Experience I & II
This course is designed to provide year one
health professions students, including medicine
and pharmacy, with the understanding that
patients are situated within communities that
define and influence their health, well-being, and
response to health care. This understanding is
essential to providing accessible, effective, and
sustainable care. The curriculum will address
basic concepts of population health and
challenge students to apply those concepts. The
course will be delivered at NEOMED in the
context of didactic lectures, large groups, small
groups, and community interaction. Students will
37
Human Development and Structure
The course encompasses an integrated
exploration of the human body from the level of
gross anatomy to microscopic and
submicroscopic anatomy. The normal and
pathological development of the body from
conception to birth is included in this survey.
Contemporary medical imaging will be used to
explore the body from a clinical perspective.
Throughout the course the functional anatomy of
body systems will be emphasized, and
appropriate examples of pathological processes
will be outlined.
Molecules to Cells
The major goal of this course for M1 and P1
students is to describe the operation of the
human body in health and disease at the most
fundamental level possible, namely, the cellular
and molecular level. We wish to relate these
operations to 1) the utilization of food
substances for the generation of energy
in the body, and 2) the relationship between
clinical values and intermediary metabolism in
disease processes, and 3) the flow of genetic
information from genes to the organism within
disease. The course will focus on the etiology and
mechanism of diseases rather than on their
diagnosis or treatment.
Healthcare Delivery System
This course is an inter-professional course that is
team-taught. The course describes the U.S.
health care system and presents the critical
issues and core challenges surrounding our
system. Faculty provide an in-depth and
objective appraisal of how our health care
system is organized to deliver care; the
enormous impact of health-related behaviors on
the structure, function, and financing of the
health care delivery system; and other emerging
and recurrent issues in health policy, health care
management, and public health.
This course covers each of the major organ
systems. Clinical correlations are emphasized.
The course includes an understanding of normal
organ function (physiology), permitting students
to diagnose the causes of abnormal physiology
(pathophysiology), permitting students to
pharmacologically or surgically return organ
function to normal.
Prologue
Prologue is a one week course that is meant to
introduce medical and pharmacy students to
professional student responsibilities and to
provide information and instruction to encourage
and enable success in professional education and
beyond. Students will develop skills that will
foster independent learning. Students will
generate the concept of the multi-disciplinary
approach to understanding the science of health
and disease. Students will have the opportunity
to reflect on their own interactions within a team
and be expected o give construction feedback to
other team members. All of this takes place
within the context of professional school where
professional behavior is paramount and the level
of personal responsibility has increased.
Human Values in Medicine I & II
Human Values in Medicine (HVM) is a four-year
curriculum designed to provide educational
experiences focused on themes arising from the
broad areas of humanities, bioethics, and
reflective practice. HVM will take place in large
group lecture settings, as well as in small
discussion groups. Some of the lectures and
small discussion groups will include medical,
pharmacy and graduate students. The
component, Reflective Practice, will have only
medical students.
In focusing on narrative approaches to medicine,
humanities, ethics and reflective practice
sessions teach students not only “how to
critically read stories” but to look within
themselves and others to understand multiple
perspectives and issues. As patient-centered
care is the focus of their ethics training, this
multi-disciplinary narrative approach enforces
the importance of listening to patient stories, and
listening to the self.
Professional Foundations I & II
This course is an inquiry into the NEOMED
student development including professional and
personal identity, leadership and diversity, and
academic success strategies specifically focused
on the medical student development. Students
are challenged to enhance their intellectual
potential, understand their academic and moral
38
responsibilities, and appreciate diversity in a
framework that develops the critical thinking,
learning, and communication skills necessary to
contribute successfully to the university’s
intellectual life and to their future careers as
physicians and pharmacists in a global society.
The use of theoretical models, student selfassessment using national assessment tools, and
in-class experiential learning components such as
journaling and group discussion engages students
in cognitive and psychosocial skill development.
Human Values in Medicine III & IV
Human Values in Medicine (HVM) is a four-year
curriculum designed to provide educational
experiences focused on themes arising from the
broad areas of humanities, bioethics, and
reflective practice. HVM will take place in large
group lecture settings, as well as in small
discussion groups. Some of the lectures and
small discussion groups will include medical,
pharmacy and graduate students. The
component, Reflective Practice, and some thics
lectures, will have only medical students. In
focusing on narrative approaches to medicine,
humanities, and ethics and reflective practice
sessions teach students no only “how to critically
read stories” but to look within themselves and
others to understand multiple perspectives and
issues. As patient-centered care is the focus of
their ethics training, this multi-disciplinary
narrative approach enforces the importance of
listening to patient stories, and listening to the
self.
M2 Curriculum
M2 serves as the bridge from classroom and
laboratory basic science work to clinical
applications in hospitals and ambulatory settings.
The curriculum and educational activities cover
material in body system modules and
concentrate on basic pathophysiologic processes
and the mechanisms underlying clinical signs and
disease. The curriculum emphasizes hands on
experience in labs, hospitals, and community
settings. Students attend classes at the
Rootstown campus and at the major teaching
campuses where small group teaching takes
place. Each system module includes an
integrated approach to the clinical content, with
exposure to a patient and a session that focuses
on the impact on the community and how
illnesses in that area can be prevented.
Infection and Immunity
The objectives of Infection and Immunity are to
teach basic concepts in microbiology,
immunology and infectious disease as they relate
to the overall human organism in health and
disease. This course emphasizes basic concepts
and principles of microbes and the immune
system and focuses on clinical infectious disease
in organ systems in the host. Antibiotics,
microbial resistance, and drugs acting on the
immune system are also covered. Self-directed
laboratory exercises as well as clinical computer
problems are also part of the course.
Principles of Clinical Medicine I & II
Principles of Clinical Medicine is part of the
continuation of the longitudinal curriculum into
the M2 year. Four course themes continue to be
developed and advanced throughout the
modules of the course. These themes include:
physician identity, patient care, professionalism,
population health and primary care.
Principles of Medicine I, II, III
To provide students with basic concepts of
pathophysiology of disease, i.e., symptoms,
diagnosis, management and prevention of
disease, as they apply to each content module.
Integrated core content includes components of
Internal Medicine, Pathology, Pharmacology and
Radiology.
This section of the course is designed to integrate
with the Infection and Immunity courses and the
corresponding modules of the Principles of
Medicine (POM) course, so that course activities
coincide with and build upon the knowledge
content presented in these courses, and help
develop the skills and attitudes essential to the
application of medical knowledge in the clinical
setting.
Principles of Medicine is divided into three
courses. The student will receive a final grade for
each based on the cumulative numerical score of
the module exams.
Community Experience III & IV
Descriptions not available at time of publication.
The sections include the following modules:
39
POM I – Introduction to Principles of Medicine
course; Hematology; Pulmonary; Cardiology
POM II – Endocrinology/Reproductive Medicine;
Nephrology; Gastroenterology/Nutrition
POM III – Neurology/Eye/Psychiatry;
Rheumatology/Musculoskeletal; Infection and
Immunity; Allergy/Dermatology/Geriatrics
and residents in the major teaching hospitals
throughout the consortium, students learn
diagnostic and therapeutic skills, gain experience
in patient management and examine the ethical
dilemmas of contemporary medicine. The faculty
regularly provides special teaching sessions
appropriate to the learning level of medical
students. In each of the six clerkships, students
spend time in hospitals, private offices, and
clinics and study with a primary focus on the
specific patients they encounter. They become
the junior members of clinical teams, gradually
taking on active roles in support of the nurses,
residents, and faculty. The third year is a
demanding, full-time clinical experience,
requiring students to apply the education they
gained in the class rooms and labs of the first two
years.
General Pathology
The course is designed to integrate the Basic
Science curriculum, particularly Anatomy,
Histology, and Physiology, with the Principles of
Medicine Course, and especially Systemic
Pathology. The course will cover pathology and
pathophysiology of processes that are multisystemic or stereotypical in multiple organ
systems. Examples would include cell injury and
death, healing and repair, hemodynamic
disorders, infectious diseases and neoplasia. This
information is a necessary prerequisite to the
understanding of pathology in individual organ
systems. In addition, the course will introduce
topics not included in systemic pathology such as
the pathology of pediatric, environmental and
nutritional diseases.
Orientation to Clinical Skills (“Boot Camp”)
“Bootcamp” integrates the Longitudinal courses
and Principles of Medicine by incorporating the
information from these years while also adding
new knowledge and new skills needed for the
upcoming clinical years. It was designed to help
to develop the skills and attitudes essential to the
application of medical knowledge and
professional behavior in the clinical setting.
Students are expected to take increasing
responsibility for their preparation and
professional behavior, including attendance,
timeliness, respect, and feedback.
This course is designed to facilitate integration of
basic science knowledge with clinical problem
solving, to enhance critical thinking, and to assist
with effective preparation for the USMLE Step 1
exam. Learning strategies include question
based small group discussion sessions and selfdirected learning of assigned reading and home
study of USMLE World questions. Students will
utilize the Team Based Learning and the method
developed by John Pelley PhD for critical thinking
and diagramming in analysis of content. The
NBME Comprehensive Basic Science Exam (CBSE)
will be given as a pretest midway through the
course and a formative feedback session will be
held to identify individual strengths and
challenges in understanding of material. The
content of the course will be aligned with the M2
Principles of Medicine Course to integrate and
reinforce content and critical thinking.
Doctoring 301
This course provides the students an opportunity
to experience aspects of medicine not covered
during the usual clerkship training. Students have
a culmination of their Primary Ambulatory Care
experience, they complete the on-line Institute
for Healthcare Improvement Certificate Program
designed to allow students to apply principles of
patient safety and quality improvement and they
choose one of 3 Interprofessional ambulatory
care experiences. This is a continuation of the
longitudinal curriculum, including psychosocial
topics.

Psychiatry (6 weeks)
M4 Curriculum
Guided by advisors and working within a set of
requirements, senior medical students design
their own curricula based on their educational
and career priorities. Over the year, students
take at least six electives, each of one month in
length. Students are required to select a
balanced set of electives across four major
categories (critical care, inpatient, outpatient,
and emergency medicine). Two are required
within the consortium; one must be the
outpatient experience.
The combined degree program begins with two
or three calendar years (Phase 1) at The
University of Akron, Kent State University or
Youngstown State University and four additional
years at the College of Medicine.
Application to the College of Medicine is made in
the fall of the high school student’s senior year.
Students may obtain the combined application
from the Office of Admissions’ website at
www.neomed.edu in August. All applications
must be received by Oct. 15 for Early Action or
Dec. 15 for regular notification of the year
preceding anticipated enrollment. Students are
then notified regarding further proceedings
within the screening process from the
university(ies) to which they have applied.
Clinical Epilogue and Capstone Course
This is a required course offered in March that
provides students with preparation for residency
through examination and mastery of key skills,
knowledge, and attitudes necessary to thrive
during residency. The course is divided into two
parts: one, large group sessions on such topics as
resident rights, palliative care and residency
dilemmas; and two, small group electives
whereby students choose two from such
offerings as Medicine and Spirituality, Science
Fiction and Medicine, Law and Medicine, Finding
a Mindful Inner Balance in Medicine, Film and
Medicine, and War and Medicine, among others.
Both large group sessions and electives ask
students to reflect on the multiple and often
contradictory challenges and meanings of a life in
medicine.

Direct Entry M.D. Admission
Medicine
Individuals who will have completed at least
three-quarters of study toward a baccalaureate
degree before anticipated entrance into the
M.D. program are eligible to apply to the College
of Medicine. This is also referred to as Direct
Entry. The majority of students admitted to the
College of Medicine are from the B.S./M.D.
program, limiting the number of seats offered to
students applying through Direct Entry. Due to
the limited number of seats, Direct Entry
students are encouraged to apply early.
B.S./M.D. Admission
Admission to the combined B.S./M.D. program is
a function of three of the partner universities as
well as the College of Medicine. High school
seniors and individuals who have not earned
post-secondary college credit after receiving a
high school diploma, may take advantage of the
B.S./M.D. path.
Considerations for admission to the M.D.
program include demonstrated proficiency in
appropriate coursework, scores from the Medical
College Admission Test (MCAT),
recommendations, a commitment to the field of
medicine, and extracurricular and work activities.
An advantage to a combined B.S./ M.D. program
is that once accepted into the program, the
student has a reserved seat in the College of
Medicine (Phase 2) without reapplying. The
student is required to meet specified minimum
41
Advanced Standing (Transfer) M.D.
Admission
Personal interviews, by invitation only from the
M.D. Admissions Subcommittee, also are a part
of the screening process. Application procedures
are outlined below.
Students enrolled at other medical schools who
desire to transfer to the College of Medicine may
do so through application to the Advanced
Standing admission program. Applicants are
considered for entrance into their second or third
year of medical school. The number of seats
available for students applying for Advanced
Standing is determined by attrition and is
therefore limited.
(1) Applicants must apply online through the
American Medical College Application Service
(AMCAS), located at www.aamc.org or
202.828.0600. Deadline for receipt of the AMCAS
application is Nov. 1 of the year preceding
anticipated enrollment.
(2) Applicants must take the MCAT no later than
the fall prior to the year of anticipated
enrollment. Information on testing dates and
registration may be obtained from MCAT,
American College Testing Program, P.O. Box 4056,
Iowa City, Iowa 52243, 319.337.1357,
http://www.aamc.org/students/mcat/.
Applications for Advanced Standing are available
on the Admissions’ website at www.neomed.edu
in January for the year of anticipated enrollment.
The application deadline is April 1 prior to the fall
matriculation date.
Criteria such as transcripts, letters of
recommendation and scores from the United
States Medical Licensure Exam (USMLE) Step 1
are considered by the Advanced Standing
Admissions Committee. Applicants will also be
required to pass a clinical skills evaluation.
(3) Applicants must submit the NEOMED
Supplementary Application, located at
www.neomed.edu. Only those who complete the
supplementary application are continued in the
process. The deadline for receipt of the
supplementary materials is Dec. 1 of the year
prior to anticipated enrollment.
Sophie Davis Advanced Standing
M.D. Admission
Direct Entry Early Decision M.D.
Admission
Students completing their B.S degree and first
two years of M.D. studies at Sophie Davis School
of Biomedical Education at the City College of
New York may select NEOMED as one of their
possible locations for admission to the third year
of medical training. More information on the
application process is available through Sophie
Davis or by contacting NEOMED Admissions.
Those applicants to the M.D. program who
consider NEOMED their first choice and are
competitive academically are encouraged to
apply through the Early Decision Program (EDP).
All EDP applicants must have MCAT scores and
apply through AMCAS by Aug. 1, and have
supplementary materials returned to the Office
of Admissions by Sept. 1 of the year prior to
anticipated enrollment. Notification to the
applicant regarding admission is given by Oct. 1.
If selected, an EDP applicant is obligated to
attend the College of Medicine. If not selected
for admission through the EDP program,
applicants may then apply to other medical
schools. Since limited seats are available each
year, an obvious advantage to applying through
this program is early notification from the College
of Medicine.

and enable success in professional education and
beyond. Students will develop skills that will
foster independent learning. Students will
generate the concept of the multi-disciplinary
approach to understanding the science of health
and disease. Students will have the opportunity
to reflect on their own interactions within a team
and be expected o give construction feedback to
other team members. All of this takes place
within the context of professional school where
professional behavior is paramount and the level
of personal responsibility has increased.
Year 1 Theme: Dosage Forms
The cornerstone of pharmacy practice is to know
the medication products that pharmacists
dispense. Students need to understand the
various forms by which medication can be
effectively administered to patients and the
advantages of the different routes of
administration. Students must also have the
knowledge and skill to compound a new form of
medication if the patient situation necessitates
such activity. Students will learn about the
anatomy, biochemistry and physiology of the
human body to select appropriate routes of
administration, as well as a foundation of drug
formulations to optimize consistent release and
absorption of drug at various sites. The ability to
search and analyze the medical literature enables
the student to recommend new forms of therapy
to health care providers when available
medication and dosage forms do not meet the
patient’s needs. Interaction with medical
students in classrooms and in simulated patient
care situations will build communication skills in
these situations.
BLOCK 1
Human Structure for Pharmacy
This course has been developed to provide
pharmacy students with a general understanding
of the structure (and function) of the human
body. Students will develop a basic vocabulary of
anatomic terminology used by healthcare
professionals internationally. The human body
will be explored using a systems approach,
allowing the student to develop a core
knowledge base of all the major body systems. At
the conclusion of the course, it is expected that
each student will be armed with the terminology
and core concepts required of their profession.
Orientation/Professional Foundations I
Orientation/Professional Foundations I is an
inquiry into the NEOMED student development
including professional and personal identity,
leadership and diversity, and academic success
strategies specifically focused on the medical
student development. Students are challenged
to enhance their intellectual potential,
understand their academic and moral
responsibilities, and appreciate diversity in a
framework that develops the critical thinking,
learning, and communication skills necessary to
contribute successfully to the university’s
intellectual life and to their future careers and
physicians and pharmacists in a global society.
The use of theoretical models, student selfassessment using national assessment tools, and
in-class experiential learning components such as
journaling and group discussion engages students
in cognitive and psychosocial skill development.
Pharmaceutics with Lab
This course provides students with an
introduction to the practice of pharmacy. The
course is compiled of three different modules,
including 1) pharmaceutics and drug delivery
systems, 2) over the counter (OTC)/self-care and
a 3) compounding laboratory experience. It will
equip the pharmacy student with the basic
knowledge of theory and principles applicable to
functioning in the pharmacy set in a community
pharmacy. In the drug delivery systems and
pharmaceutics module, skill sets such as
formulating, designing, compounding, and
evaluating dosage forms and drug delivery
systems. Pharmacy calculations required for
compounding and appropriate patient dosing will
be examined. The course also introduces the
concepts of good manufacturing practice (GMP),
quality control, and drug standards including
identification of compendia and compendial
standards. Students will learn to apply
biopharmaceutical principles to the selection and

An overview will be given on over-the-counter
(OTC) medications used most commonly in the
day-to-day setting of a community pharmacy, as
well as the self-managed disease states
commonly encountered in this setting. A TeamBased Learning Approach will be utilized in the
OTC/Self-care module to develop the knowledge
of OTC medications. In the Pharmacy
Compounding Lab, students will learn the art of
medication compounding in a laboratory setting
complete with dosage form preparation, patient
profiles as well as appropriate auxiliary
Evidence‐Based Medicine 1 presents an
introduction to clinical study presents data
analysis, and the application of a wide variety of
reference materials. The student will gain insight
into the appropriate use of evidence and
resource materials in clinical practice. Students
will learn the importance of primary, tertiary and
internet resources, as well as to how to critically
evaluate research‐based evidence. Some of the
areas in which students will gain competence
are: specification of a research question,
selection of study design, formulation and
literature support of a hypothesis, descriptive
and inferential statistics, clinical trials, and
reporting data and information.
This course is the first of nine experiential
courses that focus on professional skills
development for contemporary pharmacy
practice. Pharmacy students will learn the basic
skills of interviewing and counseling patients.
Students will be introducted to medical
terminology and the Top 200 prescription drugs.
An interprofessional team project willb e
introduced, in which pharmacy and medical
students will participate in groups to begin the
assessment and planning stages of implementing
a project intended to improve the health of the
community.
OTC Self-Care
This course provides students with an
introduction to the pharmacotherapy of
OTC/Self-Care medications and an opportunity
for application of this knowledge using case
studies. An overview will be given on over-thecounter (OTC) medications used most commonly
in the day-to-day environment of a community
pharmacy, as well as the self-managed disease
states commonly encountered in this setting. A
Team-Based Learning (TBL) approach will
beutilized to develop the knowledge of OTC
medications and the skills for knowledge
application.
BLOCK 2
Molecules to Cells (Block 2 and 3)
The major goal of this course for M1 and P1
students is to describe the operation of the
human body in health and disease at the most
fundamental level possible, namely, the cellular
and molecular level. We wish to relate these
operations to 1) the utilization of food
substances for the generation of energy
in the body, and 2) the relationship between
clinical values and intermediary metabolism in
disease processes, and 3) the flow of genetic
information from genes to the organism within
disease. The course will focus on the etiology and
mechanism of diseases rather than on their
diagnosis or treatment.
Health Care Delivery Systems
The U.S. Health Care Delivery System course is an
inter-professional course that is team-taught.
The course describes the U.S. health care system
and presents the critical issues and core
challenges surrounding our system. Faculty
provide an in-depth and objective appraisal of
how our health care system is organized to
deliver care; the enormous impact of healthrelated behaviors on the structure, function, and
financing of the health care delivery system; and
other emerging and recurrent issues in health
policy, health care management, and public
health. An interprofessional poster presentation
on a current issue in the U.S. health care delivery
system is required.

The Physiological Basis of Medicine (PBM) course
is designed to help you achieve an understanding
of how the healthy cardiovascular, renal,
respiratory, endocrine and gastrointestinal
systems function.
seven week course, each for three afternoons.
Through these visits, the students will acquire
basic skills in pharmacy practice, observe and
demonstrate professionalism, and further
develop their sense of professional identity. Also
during this block students will be participating in
discussions regarding medical ethics and
reflecting on an ethical dilemma. The Community
Educator Program begins in this block and
students will visit their assigned Community
Educator once during Block 2 (and once more in
each of Blocks 3 and 4). During these visits
students will continue the practice of
interviewing and gain an appreciation for the
personal and environmental issues that affect the
population of patients they will one day be
helping. In this course the students will learn
about the principles of medication adherence
and practice the skill of improving medication
adherence with a standardized patient in the
Wasson Center.
Your subsequent training will build on your
foundation understanding of normal organ
function (physiology) to permit you to diagnose
the causes of abnormal physiology
(pathophysiology) and to pharmacologically (or
surgically) return organ function toward normal.
The purpose of PBM is to facilitate your mastery
of normal physiology. Examples of disease and
their related pharmaceuticals will be presented
to demonstrate how organ function can be
altered. Two related case studies will
furtherillustrate how pathologies alter normal
function in the cardiovascular and pulmonary
systems. Those case studies will also consider
pharmacologic modification capable of returning
that function to normal.
BLOCK 3
Evidence Based Medicine (EBM II) will reinforce
principles of drug information gathering and
critiquing of scientific literature using concepts of
evidence based medicine. This course provides
an opportunity to apply knowledge of electronic
databases, research design and literature
evaluation to make effective journal club
presentations. At the end of this course, students
will be able to actively evaluate the clinical
literature and understand the importance of
critical analysis of the biomedical literature.
These core principles will be reinforced in
clinically-based interdisciplinary conferences
through the remainder of the curriculum.
Parenteral Products with Lab
This course is designed to understand and
critique parenteral medication orders and to
convert complex therapeutic infusion orders into
finished products. Accurate calculation of
parenteral ingredients, chemical interactions and
stabilities will be stressed. Students will learn
sterile techniques and safety precautions for
compounding piggyback medications, large
volume parenterals, parenteral nutrition and
sterile irrigation solutions. Special emphasis will
be placed on reconstituting chemotherapy
agents. Students will learn the importance of inline filters, specialized infusion tubing and
shielding specific fluids from sunlight.
This course is the second of nine experiential
courses that focuses on professional skills
practice. This course will focus on the theme of
professional identity development and service.
This will be accomplished by participating in
discussions regarding medical ethics and
reflecting on an ethical dilemma and assessment
of patients (Community Educator). Students will
visit six different pharmacy practice sites during
each seven week course. Starting in PPCE 2 and
continuing in PPCE 3 and 4, students will visit five
different pharmacy practice sites during each
Technology will be introduced through the use of
specialized pumps for compounding parenteral
nutrition solutions, infusion pumps for
administering intravenous medication and
mobile pumps for infusing pain medication or
chemotherapy. Students will be introduced to
specialized infusion lines such as the central line,
PICC lines, infusion ports, and peripheral
catheters. Students will learn about new
standards for managing a sterile products area as
well as current OSHA standards for employee and
patient safety.

practice. Students will visit their assigned
Community Educator once during Block 3to take
a medical history and continue to develop their
communication skills. In this block, students will
further develop counseling skills by formulating a
written counseling document fora prescription
medication.
will work closely with health care providers and
patients to ensure the right drug is prescribed,
documented and dispensed and will learn the
pharmacology of drug action as well as the
science behind the absorption, distribution,
metabolism and elimination of drug molecules.
Students will use this knowledge to guide the
selection of the appropriate drug and dose as
well as to counsel the patient on expected
outcome and adverse effects. Technology in the
form of mechanized dispensing systems,
computerized prescribing and electronic patient
profiles offer increased speed and efficiency in
providing medication to the patient. Students will
be exposed to and become competent in using
this technology at various practice sites and will
become certified in several skills including
administering immunizations and Medication
Therapy Management (MTM)
services. Interaction with medical students will
continue with a comprehensive self-directed
interprofessional team project.
BLOCK 4
Brain, Mind and Behavior
The Brain, Mind and Behavior course introduces
students to the central nervous system. We
discuss structures and the circuits they form, how
they develop, how they function normally, and
how they function, or malfunction, with disease,
disorders or damage. We explore aspects of
behavioral science and psychiatry that cover
normal and abnormal behaviors, including
behaviors that affect how a health care
professional can interact with a patient to learn
about the patient and to advise or recommend a
treatment.
BLOCK 5
Infection and Immunity
This course will provide the fundamental
knowledge necessary for the proper
management of diseases that are either totally
microbiological/immunological in nature or that
have a significant microbiological/immunological
component.
This course is the fourth of nine experiential
practice. Students will visit two more pharmacy
practice sites during this block, each for three
afternoons. Through these visits, the students
will acquire basic skills in pharmacy practice,
observe and demonstrate professionalism, and
further develop their sense of professional
identity. This block will focus on aspects of
mental illness and how it impacts ethical
dilemmas as well as specific aspects of pharmacy
practice. In this block students will further be
tested on their communication skills by
counseling a patient on a prescription and OTC
product as the final Wasson assessment in the
first professional year.
Medication Use Systems
Understanding and prevention of medication
errors is the primary focus in the course. It will
provide students with an understanding of the
processes involved in the medication use system
in outpatient and institutional pharmacy settings,
and the pharmacist's role and responsibilities in
utilizing and maintaining the safety of such
systems. The operational design of medication
use systems is explored in the context of patient
safety. Topics include: error nomenclature; error
reporting; work flow design; personnel
responsibilities; data entry; prescription
processing; record-keeping systems; medication
packaging, labeling and dispensing; drug
distribution systems; drug storage; inventory
control; information systems; legal implications;
and quality improvement methods.
Year 2 Theme: Medication Use
Systems
Pharmacists are responsible for providing
medication to patients in an optimal dosage form
that is appropriate for administration. Students
52
Pharmacy Management: Operations
This course explores, analyzes, and presents all
key areas that comprise the medication use
processes in contemporary health‐system
pharmacy practice and administration, as well as
the health care delivery system at a higher level.
Each student will participate in an individual
project justifying a new service, product, position
or request of similar nature, by developing a
formal proposal for the justification and
implementation of the requested service,
position or product. The proposal will be
presented to the rest of the class, course
directors and/or guest evaluators. By the
conclusion of the course, students will have
obtained a deeper and broader understanding of
the entire medication use process in a healthcare
system. They will also understand the advantages
and disadvantages of various methods to provide
key services.
The second year of the PPCE sequence focuses
on the theme of medication use systems. This
course is the fifth of nine courses that focus on
professional skills development for contemporary
pharmacy practice. Pharmacy students will learn
how to establish an immunization service,
administer immunizations, and evaluate a patient
medical profile to determine steps necessary to
bring a patient’s vaccination status up-to-date.
BLOCK 6
Natural Products and Nutraceuticals
The Natural Products and Nutraceuticals course
is a team taught course that provides an
understanding of the basic scientific, therapeutic
and clinical principles and the “evidence based
medicine” underlying the use of medicinal plants,
herbal medications, natural products and
nutraceuticals. The course addresses the
concepts that help the understanding of the
pharmacognostic basis of natural medicinal
products and nutraceuticals including
pharmaceutical, pharmacological, toxicological
and phytochemical aspects. In addition, a
detailed overview of specific commonly used
herbal medications in various therapeutic
categories as well as vitamins, minerals and
supplements - their efficacy, adverse effects and
drug interactions along with clinical case studies
will be provided.
This 10-week course is the sixth of nine courses
that focus on professional skills development for
contemporary pharmacy practice. Students will
participate in developing and enhancing skills in
journal club evaluation and presentation and will
participate in an interprofessional activity with
second year medical students. This course will
have a significant experiential component with
students visiting one pharmacy practice site on
two mornings per week (8 hr./week) for 8 weeks.
The sites will be either in community,
institutional, or specialty/elective settings.
(Students will be assigned to the other practice
sites in PPCE 7.) An additional 8 hours of on
campus time will be spent developing and
enhancing skills in journal club evaluation and
presentation.
Principles of Drug-Body Interactions
This course introduces the student to the
properties of a compound that make it “druglike” and therefore likely to make it through
phase 1 human clinical trials in the drug
development process. Structural,
physicochemical, biochemical, and
pharmacokinetic/toxicological properties must all
be considered and optimized for a drug to show
efficacy, with minimal toxicity, in patients. For
drugs that have made it to market, the students
will learn methods to quantitate key
pharmacokinetic parameters, predict the effects
of diseases and drug-drug interactions on those
parameters, and use them to design optimal
dosage regimens for patients..
BLOCK 7
Pharmacotherapeutics and Practice of
Pharmacy I, II, III
The Pharmacotherapeutics course sequence
spans three blocks during the second and third
professional years, and is divided into 12
different modules. Each module has a different
theme, which builds upon material from previous
modules. The course integrates basic sciences
(physiology, pathophysiology), pharmaceutical
sciences (pharmacology) and clinical pharmacy
practice (therapeutic decision making). It is team53
taught, predominantly by faculty within the
College of Pharmacy. A variety of teaching
approaches are utilized within the course,
including didactic lectures, problem-based
learning, and team-based learning.
This course will build a foundation of knowledge
related to normal physiology, pathophysiology
and the related therapeutic decision making for
the most common acute and chronic disease
states and their associated complications.
Students will learn about available pharmacologic
and non-pharmacologic therapies and the role of
the pharmacist in selecting the most appropriate
treatment modality. Extensive use of patient case
studies will help students continue to develop
the critical thinking skills necessary to collect,
analyze and evaluate appropriate information in
order to develop comprehensive, individualized
patient care plans. Application of learned
material and development of pertinent skills are
additional focal points within the course. This
course is designed to prepare students for their
advanced pharmacy practice experiential
rotations in the 4th professional year.
institutional, or specialty/elective settings. Up to
an additional 50+ hours of on campus time
will be spent reinforcing health literacy concepts,
introducing and practicing medication therapy
management (MTM), achieving competency for
the top 300 medications, practicing patient
counseling and communication skills and working
collaboratively with the second year medical
students on an interprofessional team project
(ITP).
Year 3 Theme: Patient Safety
Society expects health care providers to heal and
protect it from adverse outcomes. Pharmacists
are charged with providing medication that is
individualized for the patient based upon medical
needs, limitations imposed by disease processes
and the potential for adverse events while being
error free in dispensing prescription drugs.
Students will develop an understanding and
appreciation of pharmacotherapeutics as they
are immersed in pathophysiology, pharmacology
and management of disease with therapeutic
agents. Students will continue to grow as a
pharmacist by developing skills in patient
assessment, therapeutic decision making and
monitoring of patient outcomes, while gaining an
appreciation for the outcome of individual
patients. Students will also learn how to manage
populations of patients through institutional
medication safety programs. Interactions with
medical students in this step may occur in
interprofessional case discussions, standardized
patient encounters, health fairs and
immunization clinics. Experiences in class and in
practice settings will prepare students to enter
full time patient contact in year four where they
will share in the care of and decisions concerning
patients.
Pharmacy Management: Personnel
Pharmacy Management: Personnel is a teamtaught course that provides discussion, debate,
and exploration of the “nuts-and-bolts”
knowledge and skills required of pharmacists to
manage and lead others. Students will be
provided information related to, but not limited
to managing oneself for greater effectiveness,
writing position descriptions, recruiting and
interviewing candidates, avoiding discriminatory
hiring practices, delegating responsibility,
developing others to enhance performance,
documenting performance, conducting
performance appraisals, handling disruptive
employees, managing conflict, managing change,
and stress management. By the conclusion of this
course, students will have obtained a deeper
understanding and skills for managing and
leading others.,

Pharmacy Capstone
This course is the final didactic course in the
doctor of pharmacy curriculum. The culmination
of experiences is designed to assist student
pharmacists with the transition to becoming
licensed pharmacists and to the next stage of
their professional lives. During the course,
students will reflect on their knowledge and skill
development over the previous four years,
develop a plan for licensure exam preparation,
and explore topics beyond licensure that will
affect their short and long term professional
lives.
Personal interviews, by invitation only from the
Pharm.D. Admissions Subcommittee, are a part
of the screening process to assist with a holistic
review of the applicant. This Committee has the
authority to make all admissions decisions,
including exceptions to the criteria. A bachelor’s
degree is not required prior to application for the
Pharm.D. program. However, students with a
baccalaureate degree or higher may be
considered more competitive in the admission
process. Additionally, students with three or four
years of college may also be considered more
competitive.

Financial Planning
an individual basis and be considered in an analysis
of the student’s need. These expenses include, but
are not limited to, dependent care, child support,
alimony payments, extenuating legal expenses,
certain insurances, costs incurred for securing a
residency position (M4 and P4 students only) and
extraordinary medical expenses not covered by
insurance.
Student Budget
The University is required by federal regulation to
develop standard budgets that include typical
student expenses to detail the cost of attendance.
These include the direct educational expenses for
tuition, fees, books and supplies and average living
expenses. The items included under living expenses
are those allowable by federal regulation — rent,
food, transportation, utilities, laundry, child care,
personal hygiene items, costs related to a handicap,
clothing, health insurance, disability insurance,
medical/dental expenses, recreation and
photocopying. It is also important to note that the
maximum amount of aid a student may receive
each year from all sources is the total amount of the
student budget for direct educational expenses plus
the University’s averages for living expenses.
It should be noted, however, that it is the policy of
the University not to make adjustments to individual
student budgets except for extremely mitigating
circumstances. All requests for budget adjustments
should be submitted in writing to the Office of
Enrollment Services.
Payment of Fees
The University is on a semester schedule; therefore,
students are billed at the beginning of the fall and
spring semesters (third-year medical students are
also billed at the beginning of the summer
semester). Students may pay by cash, check or
other normally accepted means including
MasterCard or Discover. No arrangements will be
considered for any student who cannot pay the
balance of the fees due before the end of the
semester.
Student budgets serve three major purposes:
• to support students in financial planning and
budgeting,
• to assist with the equitable distribution of
student financial aid dollars, and
• to assure educational access and choice.
This budget is figured yearly based on student
surveys, the inflation rate and information from the
U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Although students
may differ on how much they actually spend for
books and supplies, room and board, personal
expenses and transportation, the student budget
contains the figures used when determining
financial aid awards.
Tuition bills are found online on the University’s
intranet system, DOCS. Fees are to be paid by the
start date of the semester. If payment is not made
by that date, class attendance or participation in
clerkships or electives will not be allowed. If
payment or arrangement for late payment has not
been made 10 days after the due date, the student
will be assessed a late fee.
Student Budgets for each individual college are
listed at the end of this section.
Disbursement of Aid
Prior to the actual disbursement of loan funds,
students will be required to complete promissory
notes and loan entrance counseling. Students
receiving institutional loans will also need to
complete a Truth-in-Lending Statement, Statement
of Rights and Responsibilities, and an Information
Sheet.
Calculating Financial Need for the
Student with Unusual Circumstances
Some students incur expenses not experienced by a
majority of students that therefore, are not
included in the standard student expense budgets.
With required documentation, however, these
expenses may be added to the standard budget on
58
Partial Refunds:
All educational loan funds are electronically
transferred directly to the University and cannot be
disbursed to the student earlier than 10 days prior
to the first day of classes. If there is a balance due
the school, this amount will be deducted and any
remaining balance will be issued to the student
within five to seven working days. Loans are
disbursed in equal installments commensurate with
the semester start dates during the academic year.
Checks can be mailed to the student’s local address
or directly deposited into a checking or savings
account within one week of their disbursement to
the student’s account.
Fees shall be refunded to a student who withdraws
or otherwise does not complete the course or
curriculum in which the student is registered based
on the percentage of attendance by the student,
calculated on a term basis. Refunds will be
calculated as follows:
Withdrawal within 60 percent of the enrollment
period:
Refund is based on percentage of attendance of the
term calculated by dividing the number of days
enrolled by the number of calendar days in the
semester including weekends and holidays and
excluding scheduled breaks of five or more days..
Withdrawal beyond 60 percent of the enrollment
period:
Refund Policy
Regulations:
Registration does not automatically carry with it the
right of a refund or reduction of indebtedness in
cases of failure or inability to attend class or in cases
or withdrawal. The student assumes the risk of all
changes in business or personal affairs. NOTE: The
term “refund” used in this section refers to the
amount of tuition credited to the student account,
not the portion of a payment that will be returned
to the student.
No refunds will be issued to students who withdraw
after completing 60 percent of the enrollment
period. The refund formula measures the actual
number of days enrolled during the semester. It is
determined by dividing the number of days enrolled
by the number of calendar days in the semester
including weekends and holidays and excluding
scheduled breaks of five or more days. For example,
if there are 107 days in a term and a student
withdraws on the 50th day of the term, charges for
financial aid will be prorated to reflect that the
student has been enrolled for 46.7 percent of the
term.
Fees Subject to Refund:
Instructional and nonresident surcharge.
Amount of Refund:
Financial Aid Refunds:
Amount of refund is to be determined in
accordance with the following registrations and
subject to requirements contained in the College’s
withdrawal policy:
If a student is a recipient of Federal Title IV aid,
refunds to those programs are required by federal
law to be the first priority and must be returned in
the following order:
Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan
Federal GradPLUS Loan
Federal Perkins Loan
The Accounting Office will determine whether a
student is due a post-withdrawal disbursement or if
a student is responsible for returning a portion of
the Title IV aid received.
Refunds will not be issued to individual students
until Federal Title IV programs or other scholarships
are reimbursed as required and all outstanding
balances with the University have been cleared.
In Full:
If the University cancels the course;
If the University does not permit the student to
enroll or continue except for disciplinary reasons; or
If the student dies before or during the term; is
drafted into military service by the United States; is
called to active duty; or if the student enlists in the
National Guard or Reserve prior to the beginning of
the term; Notice of induction or call to active duty. A
student who enlists voluntarily for active duty is
subject to the refund policy below.
59
Refund Schedule
scholarships, loans, grants, service programs and
college work-study employment. Each university
offers federally funded and state-funded financial
aid programs to help defray education costs.
The Accounting Office will process the refund within
45 days of being notified by the registrar of the date
of withdrawal. All balances due to the University as a
result of other obligations will be deducted from the
amount refunded.
State and Federal Sources of Aid
A number of sources of aid are available to meet the
needs of financial aid applicants. The following
chart of programs represents those sources of aid
for which the consortium universities and the
University select recipients and/or distribute the
funds. Students are encouraged to explore the
possibilities for financial aid from all appropriate
sources.
If fees were paid in part by financial aid, the applicable
portion of the refund must be returned to the
appropriate financial aid program. Federal regulations
require a proportionate refund to Title IV federal
student aid funds (programs sponsored by the U.S.
Department of Education). The federal formula used
in determining the portion of the fee refund to be
applied to federal student aid funds is:
It is not unusual for a student to have multiple
forms of aid. This is called a “financial aid package.”
If a student receives a proper financial aid package,
it is assumed that the family will not be expected to
contribute more than is reasonable for the
student’s education. The University and the
consortium universities are not obligated to meet a
student’s total need. Each student’s individualized
financial aid package is based on need, availability
of funds and the University’s own award policies.

opportunities in their hometowns and counties by
contacting clubs, organizations, foundations, labor
unions, companies, churches and synagogues,
county medical societies, sororities, fraternities etc.,
to determine if scholarships or loans are offered to
students.
Students who are veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces
must contact their local Department of Veterans
Affairs for assistance in determining eligibility and in
applying for veterans’ benefits. Students who are
interested in the Health Professions Scholarship
Program (HPSP) should contact Military recruiter.
Recruiter contact information available in the office

Financial Aid
Financial aid programs were developed by the
federal and state governments as well as by
institutions of postsecondary education to assist
students from families with limited resources to
meet educational expenses. The primary purpose of
financial aid is to ensure that no one is denied the
opportunity of a college education because of
financial need. Northeast Ohio Medical University
and allpartner universities, offer comprehensive
programs of financial assistance that include
Institutional Sources of Aid
Because of limited aid, the University believes the
primary responsibility for financial support rests
60
with the student, spouse and parents. The
University must obtain information about all
potential resources available to applicants for
financial aid so that these limited funds are
distributed to the neediest of students.
less student’s contribution: the amount a student
and spouse are expected to contribute to the
student’s education
less parents’ contribution (if applicable): the
amount a student’s parents are expected to
contribute to the student’s education; factors
considered are:
• current income
• number of children in college
• savings
• assets
• other debts, expenses or special
circumstances
• family size
All of these variables are considered to determine
financial need.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA) is required to determine the resources of
applicants and families.
Financial Aid Eligibility
While the student is attending one of the partner
universities, financial aid eligibility and package are
determined by that undergraduate university. In
addition, each university has established its own
policies, forms, timelines and procedures for
applying for, determining eligibility and receiving
aid.
Once the student matriculates to NEOMED, financial
aid is awarded by the University. All M.D. students
are considered graduate students pursuing a
professional degree. Therefore, federal and state
regulations, programs, application procedures and
forms differ from financial aid procedures followed
in Phase 1 and any other undergraduate program.
Pharm. D. students with at least 90 credit hours are
also considered graduate students. All Graduate
Studies students are considered graduate students
pursuing a professional degree.
Independent Student Definition
All M.D. students are considered graduate students
pursuing a professional degree and are, therefore,
considered independent of their parents when
determining eligibility for the Federal Stafford Loan
program.
The basis for awarding most financial aid is financial
need. Financial need is the difference between
educational costs and the expected family
contribution toward these costs. It is this “unmet
need” that financial aid offices attempt to cover
through various financial aid programs to assist
students in meeting educational costs.
All Pharm. D. students with at least 90 credit hours
are considered graduate students, and are,
therefore considered independent of their parents
when determining eligibility for the Federal Stafford
Loan program. Pharm. D. students with fewer than
90 credit hours will be considered dependent
students of their parents, unless meeting other
criteria for independence.
The expected family contribution is derived from a
federally approved financial analysis statement and
formula that analyzes the family income, size,
number of family members in college, assets, tax
payments, medical and unusual costs, other
benefits, savings and student earnings. All of these
items, which vary from family to family, are used to
assess financial need, not just income. Therefore, a
determination of eligibility can be made only when
the application process has been completed.
All Graduate Studies students are considered
graduate students pursuing a professional degree
and are, therefore, considered independent of their
parents when determining eligibility for the Federal
Stafford Loan program.
Financial Aid Application Procedures
Each aid applicant is encouraged to schedule an
appointment with a member of the Office of
Enrollment Services to review financial aid
programs, procedures and his or her individual aid
package.
Financial aid eligibility is:
• Based on the concept of financial “need.”
• Need is determined by:
Cost of attendance (student budget)
61
Need-Based Aid Programs
During the application and analysis process, some
students may be selected to complete a process called
“verification.”
Students must demonstrate financial need from a
FAFSA analysis and through the formula described
in “Financial Aid Eligibility” section to apply for
need-based aid. Need-based aid programs include:
• Institutional Loan
• Institutional Grant
• Primary Care Loan
• Federal Perkins Loan
• Scholarships for Disadvantaged Students
• Loans for Disadvantaged Students
Verification is the process an institution uses to check
the accuracy of the information a student has given
when applying for financial aid. If students do not
provide accurate information, they may receive more
or less money than they should. Verification is
required by the federal government.
Verification covers all need-based financial aid
programs. Students completing a FAFSA are selected
for verification randomly or if it appears likely an error
was made in the application.
Students who wish to have eligibility determined for
the programs must provide parental data on the
FAFSA form (per federal and institutional policy). All
students are encouraged to provide parental data to
take advantage of all financial aid opportunities.
Students selected for verification will be forwarded a
Verification Worksheet and a letter explaining the
process from the Office of Enrollment Services. Any
delays in completing the worksheet or in submitting
required information will result in delays in the
awarding of financial aid.
To apply for any need-based aid, the following
forms must be submitted each academic year that
the student wishes to receive aid:
The verification process and the awarding of aid are
determined on an individual basis. Although the same
policies and procedures are used uniformly, so many
factors are considered in the awarding of a student’s
financial aid that no two students’ applications result
in the same aid package.
1. FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid)
This need analysis form can be obtained via the Web
at www.FAFSA.ed.gov. The central processor then
transmits to the University the data and a family
contribution (FC) figure.
2. Federal Income Tax Forms
Draft Registration Compliance
To validate the FAFSA form, the University requires
that copies of the previous year’s federal income tax
forms of the student, spouse and parents be
submitted to the Office of Enrollment Services.
Federal law mandates that any student required to
register with the Selective Service who fails to do so
is ineligible for student financial aid under Title IV of
the Higher Education Act of 1965. Title IV programs
include the Pell Grant, Supplemental Educational
Opportunity Grant, Federal Work-Study, Federal
Perkins Loan, PLUS, Federal Unsubsidized Loan and
State Student Incentive Grant.
3. Campus-Based Aid/Supplemental Application
This form requests somewhat different information
than that requested on the FAFSA. It may be
obtained in the Office of Enrollment Services and
should be returned to the office upon completion.
The deadline for receipt of all of the above forms is
March 15 prior to the beginning of the academic
year of matriculation. The financial aid staff
evaluates students throughout the year to consider
requests for financial aid. Award notices are
available on theintranet, DOCS, by late June.
The state of Ohio has a similar requirement for all
male students. Those male students who are
required to register with the Selective Service but
fail to do so will be denied any form of financial aid
from the state of Ohio and will be charged a nonOhio tuition surcharge.

Area Health Education Centers (AHEC)
The Area Health Education Center (AHEC) program
was initiated in Ohio to promote primary care
practice in medically underserved areas of the state.
The Institution participates with the six other Ohio
medical schools in implementing the AHEC program,
which was established in 1978 to support
undergraduate and graduate medical, nursing and
allied health education programs in rural and inner
city settings.
health professions with The University of Akron,
Kent State University, and Youngstown State
University.
The AHEC program provides minority recruitment
programs for students in primary and secondary
grades in conjunction with The Office of Enrollment
Services and the Offices of the Dean, both the
Colleges of Medicine and Pharmacy; continuing
education for health professionals; and health
promotion/disease prevention programs in
cooperation with local health departments and
agencies.
The AHEC program is linked through three
community‐based centers: Akron-Region
Interprofessional (Akron), Canton Regional Area
Health Education Center (Canton) and Eastern Ohio
Area Health Education Center (Youngstown). These
centers, in collaboration with the Institution’s AHEC
Program Office, plan and develop educational
programs based on their assessment of local
resources, health personnel needs and the interest
of each community. In addition to medical
education, the Centers develop clinical‐based
educational programs in nursing and various allied
The AHEC Program and its centers collaborate with
the Ohio medical colleges, the Ohio Department of
Health and other state agencies, nearby consortium
universities and local hospitals. The program is
funded through the Ohio Legislature, the federal
AHEC Program (HRSA), with cost‐sharing from the by
consortium, local grants and program‐ generated
funds.
