Community Medical School
Announcing the inaugural session of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center COMMUNITY MEDICAL SCHOOL.
"We invite the community to experience the flavor of medical school and share the wonders of the human body and our passion for discovery." -- TTUHSC President John C. Baldwin
Through a series of public lecture programs, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Community Medical School explores the explosion of medical knowledge and technology that is transforming our lives.
All course offerings are aimed specifically for a public audience and are taught by the Health Sciences Center's most accomplished faculty, as well as guests.
The inaugural semester courses begin April 15 with a total of four classes on consecutive Tuesday evenings. Next fall, a series of six or seven classes will be offered.
CMS courses are open to anyone and everyone, regardless of background or experience, from high school students to senior citizens. All students receive a comprehensive syllabus with lecture notes, supplemental materials and suggested reading, as well as a certificate of completion for the series. Enthusiastic participants can remain for further questions and discussion with faculty well after each session ends.
