Authors developed "Seminar on Introduction to Medicine", a premedical course program which was characterized by integration of both humanistic/basic science subjects minimally touched to the forthcoming medical disciplines in Kosin University College of Medicine. The program was established aiming for effective motivation of students during the premedical course relevant enough to promote general studies leading to the medical ones aside from upgrading of their interest to the general studies prior to advance to the medical school program. The program included 14 subjects which were derived from the common socio-medical issues with scientific/humanistic background which encouraged students' active involvement in learning process by small group discussion. The immediate feedback from both faculty members and students were accepted among both students and faculties, but it required an further effort to adjust the overloading of the discussion contents and study hours among the passive learners unless otherwise independent from the discipline-centered curriculum.
