If psychoanalytic psychotherapy is to be part of the undergraduate medical curriculum, it must be well taught, and demonstrably relevant to the training of doctors. Psychotherapy teachers have a responsibility to devise a syllabus which is clear and relevant and to provide teaching which stimulates and engages the students so that they learn by thinking and understanding. An outline of a syllabus for medical students is included and one seminar as an illustration of interactive learning is described.
