Qualitative data analysis was performed by interviewing 17 members of experts in the field of education, research, treatment, and ethics in medical sciences and accreditation by 10 members of curriculum specialists and Medical ethics of different universities by using Delphi method who were selected by purposive sampling method through Brown and Clark analytical method using Atlas TI.
Results: After summarizing the concepts and categories in the form of curriculum components (i.e., objectives, educational content, implementation or educational strategies and evaluation), a total of 150 conceptual propositions, one major category with four subcategories along with a sub-category, final analysis, and report a model of professionalism curriculum was presented for medical sciences students. Finally, the validation of the developed model was done by curriculum and medical ethics experts using Delphi method.
