The Albert Einstein College
of Medicine is responsible for ensuring that all students learn in an ethical
and humanistic environment that fosters collegiality.
What is an optimal Learning Environment?
While the facilities and
tools available for learning such as up-to-date classrooms and audiovisual
aids, or hospitals that are well equipped create the back-bone for medical
education, interpersonal interactions are at the very heart of an effective and
meaningful educational experience.
We provide this learning
environment by ensuring that professionalism pervades the educational
experience. This is accomplished by fostering ethical, respectful, humanistic
and caring behavior among students, and between students, faculty, residents
and ancillary staff. Exemplary teaching is rewarded and those who threaten the
positive learning environment receive remediation.
