The courses are comprised of three components: (1) Mechanisms of Health, Disease, and Intervention; (2) Structure; and (3) Patient, Physician, and Society. Mechanisms of Health, Disease, and Intervention include normal and abnormal molecular, cellular, and organ physiology, as well as pharmacology and therapeutics. Structure integrates normal and abnormal anatomy, embryology, histology, pathology, imaging, physical diagnosis and ultrasound. Patient, Physician, and Society has two components: (1) a longitudinal, community practice-based clinical experience, known as the Initial Clinical Experience (ICE); and (2) classroom sessions focusing on non-biological sciences and core clinical skills. The First 100 Weeks ends with a period in which the students prepare for the USMLE Step 1. In addition, there is ample time in the First 100 Weeks for personalized experiences, including opportunities during the first summer for in-depth pursuit of individual interests, such as research, community service work, or international health.

THE SECOND 100 WEEKS is an integrated curriculum inclusive of both clinical and science content. It is structured around a series of advanced clinical experiences in both inpatient and ambulatory settings. These are followed by three required acting internships in medicine or pediatrics, emergency medicine, and critical care. The advanced clinical experiences of the Second 100 Weeks remain true to the pedagogy established in the First 100 Weeks, incorporating structured exercises that ensure a continuous intertwining of science and clinical medicine so that students learn to apply science successfully in the context of patient care.
