  19. Curriculum Development and Oversight The Curriculum Committee reviews every aspect of the curriculum on a regular basis: - clinical rotations - conferences - goals and materials Residents have creative input into the Committee, are members of the Committee and participate on a regular basis. Many enhancements emanate from residents’ suggestions or requests.
