The technology here on campus is awesome all of the classrooms have LCD displays as
well as projectors that are in high definition.
Regardless of where you’ve said you’re always going to have a nice view of the monitors.
On campus students have either direct access or wireless access to the university learning management system which contains all the faculty power points class notes objectives assignments and more.
I have to say that the technology on campus is absolutely amazing. The same information that we have on campus is also cloud-based so students can access the same information anywhere in the world through our portal.
Every classroom and laboratory contains the latest technology to enhance the learning experience.
We are in human simulation laboratory where our students work with human simulators along with professional patience.
The human simulation laboratory is equipped with both high and low fidelity simulators including I stand.
What do you hear I hear some Back flow some regurge yeah.
They can be programmed to present the signs and conditions of virtually any illness.
Okay what’s happening to the EKG he’s having v-fib so what do we want to do? We want to defibrate.
Here students are responding to a patient having a heart attack analyzing heart rhythm delivers shock now. Press the orange shock button now administer shock. Shock delivered.
Just the ability to practice some of the different skills like IV insertion and intubation before you actually have a patient in front of you it’s really helpful sometimes when you get in front of the patient you’re not nervous because you’ve done it so many
times on a mannequin.
UMHS goes beyond simulators affording students opportunities to interact with live professional patients who model a variety of medical problems. this takes place in a 24 bed virtual hospital ward with working head walls.
For our students to learn how to interact and examine the patient’s so that they can be prepared when they go into the clinical rotations in the United States.
Right now I’m taking a aber pro 75 mg once a day. I’m take it in the mornings because of my hypertension.
It’s really amazing to actually interact with patients as a medical student and just communicate with them and have like a first-hand experience. in practicing what we’re
learning so you’re applying what we’re learning it’s.
It’s awesome to be honest with you I like to learn in the lab and I like to be hands-on and everything just sticks more when you’re doing it and when you’re engaged okay as compared to just reading words on a textbook.
Welcome to the microbiology lab we have active research projects that students
are engaged in when they are enrolled in our research elective course.
Here students are able to develop independent research projects in microbiology.
So this came from whenever we did our surface scanning of the campus. currently we’re working on a food project and we’re actually looking for the presence of Salmonella and e-coli that is found in food products that are available at the grocery store.
This is the teres minor right here sometimes they’re bigger sometimes it’s smaller so that’s an important thing to remember for the written and for the lab.
This is our beautiful gross anatomy lab. it’s very high-tech. we have a camera system where the professor can zoom in on a particular structure to give instruction it then goes up on to these high-resolution monitors. we have one of these monitors over each of the tables where we have the cadavers.
