"....the world's largest online collection of syllabi in the history of medicine."
The National Library of Medicine's online syllabus archive collects college and university syllabi in the history of medicine, public health, the biomedical sciences, nursing, and related areas. It aims to offer a selection of current approaches to teaching in these subjects, from prehistory to the present, and in all parts of the globe.
The archive is intended both as a historical record of teaching in the history of medicine and as an online syllabus exchange for college and university educators. Educators are welcome to use this archive in developing their teaching, and we encourage you to send us any syllabi that you may devise using this collection. Feedback is always welcome, as are new syllabi and updates of old ones.
A Permanent Archive
As anyone who uses the web knows, websites come and websites go. Sometimes a hyperlink works, and sometimes it does not. For this reason, all the syllabi collected here are stored on an internal NLM server. There are no links to syllabi stored elsewhere. If a link does not work, simply let us know, and we will fix it. The syllabus will still be on our server, the only problem should be the link.
However... Many professors include, within their syllabi, hyperlinks to external websites. We cannot guarantee that these links will work.
For the Future
The version you are currently reading is the basic edition of this website. At this stage, syllabi are only available in PDF format. In the future, we shall add html versions of all syllabi and a search engine that will allow keyword searching.
