Introduction - Aims and Policy
The BME Committee aims to improve undergraduate teaching and learning in family medicine by further developing undergraduate medical education through:
- providing mapping of the BME situation in Europe;
- providing a minimal core curriculum to be used;
- underlining the usefulness of early clinical exposure;
- creating checklists for course organisers;
- issuing statements on the necessity of this teaching in all medical universities;
- strengthening teaching by getting advice from professionals from all European countries;
- helping in developing European curriculum standards in family medicine for undergraduates.
The Committee bases its tools on the latest scientific evidence and on information from all European countries.
