[The School of Medicine of the Universidad de La Frontera].
The School of Medicine of Universidad de La Frontera is the result of a tight relationship between teaching and patient care. Its recent development is based on the strengthening of international bonds. Curricular innovation is an important accomplishment, mandated by the strategic setting up of its academic corps. The aim of undergraduate teaching is to train health professionals able to successfully face prevalent health problems, with health team management capabilities, that work in close relationship with the community, with continuous educational, research, communicational and learning skills and with a solid ethical and humanitarian education. Student based education using priority health problems as models, small group tutorials and community training are the bases of medical training for the next century.
