Abstract
Preliminary findings identified that teaching interprofessional teamwork and enhancing communication were important skills to be taught at UCSF to students. In order to create and deliver two pilot courses, this action research project used qualitative methods (i.e. surveys, interviews, meeting notes, evaluations, research papers) to assess and determine what material should be taught, and if it should be delivered within the core curriculum of each school or best delivered as an interdisciplinary elective course.
