Ilios is the electronic hub for curriculum planning and oversight at UCSF’s School of Medicine. In 2001, in the midst of dramatic curriculum change, we recognized the need for a powerful tool that would both facilitate communication among course designers and serve as a development forum.

Ilios is more than a database of curricular details. With its intuitive interface and smooth navigation, it offers faculty, students, and staff a means of tracking course information and generating comprehensive reports about the integration of themes, concepts, and learning objectives.

lios is a highly flexible, Web-based application that truly supports the innovative and interdisciplinary nature of the UCSF curriculum. Its features include:

• Longitudinal monitoring of the required and elective curriculum in the Essential and Clinical Core
• Customized reports that include a wide-range of search parameters
• Learning materials database that houses multimedia content
• Seamless coordination with iROCKET

Curriculum information in Ilios is open to public search. Course calendars are also available.
