AUIS School of Medicine has a 4 year MD Program
The initial two years of the MD program focus on the traditional basic science disciplines. Laboratory, clinic and community outreach experience via participation in health community projects is a primary part of these first two years. Along with that, we include small, focused group discussions designed for problem-based learning and early assimilation of the Basic Medical Sciences into the clinical experience. Formal studies are supplemented with hands-on clinical training at the local Barbados Hospital, permitting an extension of the classroom to the real-world and exposing students to applied clinical settings.
The Clinical Medicine curriculum, which follows the Basic Sciences Program, consists of 48 weeks of core clinical rotations and 32 weeks of elective clinical rotations. Students practice clinical skills through patient contact, which is supervised by a preceptor in an inpatient or outpatient care setting. The Clinical Curriculum strives to enhance students' proficiency in taking medical histories, conducting physical diagnostic examinations, and developing doctor-patient relationship skills, thereby enabling students to become competent, compassionate physicians.
Core Rotations:
Surgery 12 Weeks
Internal Medicine 12 Weeks
Family Medicine 6 Weeks
Obstetrics and Gynecology 6 Weeks
