Category: Program of Medical Education (old system)

The undergraduate educational program provides general education that prepares students for all career options in medicine. It consists of a six-year curriculum  organized by discipline and delivered by basic and clinical science faculty. The  graduates then spend twelve months as Pre-Registration House-Officers (PRHO) in  the university and community hospitals before being  licensed  to practice medicine.

The first three years are called "preclinical years", and they cover the basic medical sciences. In the following three years, students start their clinical clerkships where they interact with patients under tutor supervision.

The curriculum utilizes a variety of instructional methods; including lectures, tutorial classes, practical training in the  lab and clinical in-patient and out-patient  rounds, student and faculty seminars in  some courses, and computer assisted learning.
