Educational Exposure Program
by MMSA VSI 29 Oct '25

29 Oct '25

Hi everyone, I am writing to let you know about the Educational Exposure program, which aims to facilitate student input and collaboration with course leads to revise the current curriculum of various modular and longitudinal courses across M1 and M2. Currently, there are no courses that have specifically reached out to us looking for student input, but if there is a course that you are particularly interested in, or believe certain aspects could use revision, please reach out to the course leader and inquire whether they would be interested in collaborating with you on an educational exposure project for the course. Examples of previous educational exposures involve reviewing course materials to ensure diversity of patient cases, updating lectures to incorporate more visual examples of medical conditions, searching for relevant videos and articles to add to the list of supplementary resources for certain lectures, and reviewing literature to identify gaps in current curriculum. If you are interested or have any other questions regarding the program, please let me know! Once a project is completed, students will receive MSPR recognition for their hard work. I have attached a document that outlines the Educational Exposure program that you can pass on to instructors when inquiring, as well as the document involved in project registration. Regards, Dustin Erickson, B.Sc (Co-op) Vice Stick Internal Sr., Manitoba Medical Students’ Association Year 3 MD student Max Rady College of Medicine University of Manitoba
