Department Clerkship

List the key learning objectives students will achieve during the clerkship. 

• Rotation Duration: Specify the length of clerkship rotation (e.g., six weeks).
• Clinical Sites: List the hospitals or healthcare settings involved in the rotation.
• Faculty: Briefly mention the faculty members who oversee the clerkship, including their areas of expertise.
• Curriculum Outline: Provide a high-level overview of the rotation's structure, including types of clinical experiences, didactic sessions and assessments.

• Prerequisites: List any prerequisite coursework or skills required before starting the clerkship.
• Application Process: Briefly explain any application procedures for specific clerkships (if applicable).
• Student Resources: Include links to resources students might find helpful during the rotation, such as departmental resources, textbooks or online learning materials.
• Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Address common student questions about the clerkship clearly and concisely.

Provide contact details for the clerkship director or program coordinator for students with further questions.

• Use concise and clear language that is easy for the general public to understand.
• Use evergreen language that stays relevant and accurate over a long period of time. It avoids using terms or references that are likely to become outdated quickly. Here are some tips for using evergreen language on your site:
  • Focus on core concepts: Explain things clearly and timelessly.
  • Focus on general benefits: Emphasize the overall value the clerkship provides.
  • Use timeless verbs and tenses: Opt for present or future tense whenever possible.
  • Avoid referencing dates, events or specific details unless they're directly relevant to the topic and the information is unavailable elsewhere. There is likely already a dedicated page with information on things like curriculum, conduct guidelines, etc., that we can link to. This evergreen, centralized approach ensures consistent information and helps improve user experience and site navigation.
