AWSOM’s curriculum connects hands-on learning with real-world care. With clinical exposure starting in year one, we prepare students to lead with insight, empathy, and skill.
The Flipped Classroom Model
Students learn independently first, then come together to collaborate, apply knowledge, and build clinical skills through case studies, discussion, and immersive learning.
Prepare for the Future of AI in Medicine
Learn how the school integrates AI into medicine by teaching future physicians to lead with innovation, equity, and a whole-person approach.
Bridge Creativity, Anatomy, and Forward Thinking
The School’s Makerspace is a hands-on environment where students bridge creativity, anatomy, and innovation by building models that bring clinical concepts to life.
Students gain real-world skills through simulation and patient encounters that sharpen clinical reasoning and communication.
Strengthen Your Clinical Foundation
Practice real-world care in AWSOM’s 12-room Clinical Skills Center. Build confidence in patient communication, client reasoning, and physical exams from day one.
Learn Side by Side With Medical Experts
From year one, students at the Alice L. Walton School of Medicine gain clinical experience with trusted partners like Mercy and UAMS, building confidence across specialties and diverse patient care settings.
