ACADEMIC PROGRAMMES

 

 

The department participates in the training of undergraduate medical students as well as co-ordinate other courses for students in other departments of the university. At the postgraduate level, the department runs a Doctor of Medicine (M.D) programme.

Curriculum for Undergraduate Medical Training

 

The Department of Medicine undertakes the training of the following clinical students:

 

  1. Part IV M.B., Ch.B. (Clinical 1) students – 400 Level
  2. Part VI M.B., Ch.B. (Clinical 3) students – 600 Level

 

Part IV M.B., Ch.B. Programme (400 Level)

 

This programme is undertaken by students who have just concluded their pre-clinical studies and have passed the Part III M.B., Ch.B. (2 nd MB) examinations in Anatomy, Biochemistry and Physiology. They are thus in the first year of their clinical training. The main courses undertaken at the 400 level in the Department of Medicine are:

 

  1. CLI 420 – Introduction to the Principles of Medical Practice

 

This course involves clinical rotation in Internal Medicine and lasts for a total duration of 8 weeks divided into 2 periods of 4 weeks each (M1 & M2).

1 st Posting (M1) – Course content and objectives : This consists of 4 weeks of lectures and clinical demonstrations on history-taking and physical examination. Students are taught the rudiments of clerking in medical practice and are made to conduct themselves in a manner proper for the practice of medicine. The ability to interpret symptoms and signs of diseases of the various systems of the body is emphasized. No end-of-posting examination is given. However, attendance and participation are scored. Below is a summary of the M1 clinical rotation.

 

Period

Topic

1 st Week

History-Taking & General Physical Examination

2 nd Week

Respiratory & Gastro-intestinal Systems

3 rd Week

Cardiovascular & Endocrinological Systems

4 th Week

Central Nervous & Urogenital Systems

 

2 nd Posting (M2) – Course content and objectives : This posting lasts for another 4 weeks and it takes place immediately after the M1 posting without a break. Students are distributed to Consultants and are made to actively participate in the management of the patients under the care of their Consultants. In particular, students are made to put into practice what they learnt during the M1 posting by clerking and presenting cases during ward rounds and clinics.

Method of evaluation: At the end of the 8 weeks (M1 & M2), an end-of-posting clinical examination (long cases only) is conducted. The marks obtained usually form part (10%) of the overall score at the end of the Part IV M.B., Ch.B. programme.

CLI 400 – Integrated Lecture Series

Course content and objectives: These are series of lectures aimed at reviewing the basic pathophysiology and management of various disorders of the body systems. At the end of the lecture series, students are expected to have acquired knowledge enough to understand the mechanisms, methods of diagnosis and treatment of most medical disorders.
