Background. The results of the study made it possible to improve the system of interdisciplinary integration of the medical education process, considering the vertical and horizontal integration of educational programs in the teaching of clinical sciences, the ergonometric requirements of the educational trajectory and the creation of a system and educational elements.
Material. As a result of organizing the educational process considering the credit-module system, the national mentality of the region, and the age characteristics of students, future doctors will be able to synthesize and improve the quality of knowledge, deepen clinical thinking, form an integrated approach to the sciences being studied, and develop scientific and practical potential.
Results. The introduction of pedagogical technologies based on integrative and targeted modular competence in the teaching of clinical sciences makes it possible to increase the activity of students in the learning process and the rates of mastering theoretical and practical knowledge on average from 29.1% to 90.7%. In the credit-module system, which includes the process of teaching urology, the total weekly load (excluding the audience) is set at 54 hours, self-study – at 22 hours, i.e., 40% (in foreign countries this figure is 60-70 hours). %), which, in turn, indicates the need to increase the hours of independent work of students (by at least 50%) in the process of medical education, as well as the formation of target assignments based on foreign experience, the need to individually rework the topics of the educational process not only in form but also in content.
Conclusion. When teaching medical clinical sciences using modern innovative, interactive teaching methods, it has been proven that students' knowledge increases by 87-95% and their practical skills increase by 85-92% when teaching through patient demonstrations (with the patient's consent) or in simulation centres. Based on an innovative approach, the development of a program for the prevention, accurate detection, and treatment of diseases in the population, which allows increasing the student’s scientific curiosity, and its application during the student’s practice has a positive effect on increasing the student’s interest in his profession.
