At the Office of Medical Education Research and Development (OMERAD), we believe that the most significant breakthroughs in healthcare education happen through collaboration. As a core unit within Michigan State University’s College of Human Medicine, and partner with the MSU Global Health Institute, we provide a unified framework that connects institutions with world-class expertise.
We welcome collaborations with medical schools, faculty, and academic leaders to foster excellence through shared learning, scholarly exchange and the co-development of innovative educational models.
OMERAD helps partner institutions navigate the transition to competency-based frameworks. This collaborative approach ensures that the curriculum is not only compliant but also transformative.
Capacity building is at the heart of institutional growth. OMERAD designs joint initiatives that empower educators to lead in both classroom and clinical settings.
Data-driven improvement is the cornerstone of a successful medical program. OMERAD can help refine how you measure learner progress and program efficacy.
OMERAD co-creates visual tools that turn complex data into actionable insights for administrators and students to assist with oversight needs.
OMERAD encourages partnerships to explore and research the ethical, effective application of AI in the medical classroom.
Supporting the "whole student" is vital for long-term professional success. OMERAD can help develop and support initiatives that promote student success, health, wellness and career advising strategies.
