Ringkasan program

This course is an integrated program that provides an alternative to the traditional pathway from secondary school to an undergraduate medical course. Throughout the course there are three broad topics or themes: doctor and patient: the practical communication, examination and procedural skills essential for effective interaction between the doctor and patients and for constructive interaction with other health professionals; knowledge of health and illness: knowledge of the structure, function and development of the normal human body at all levels of organisation, from the molecular and cellular to the whole individual; doctor, the profession and society: consideration of health and illness in the wider contexts of family, cultural group, community and political and economic influences in society. Students graduate with a Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery that is comparable to the six year MBBS programs for school leavers and is recognised by the World Health Organisation. They must then complete a year as a paid hospital intern before qualifying for full registration in Australia. The course is designed to provide a high standard of academic, clinical and professional medical training to provide graduates with the skills necessary to take up positions as hospital interns and thereby qualify for medical registration in Australia. At the same time, the course fosters autonomous learning and provides a foundation of knowledge and skills in preparation for diverse career choices after graduation.The course aims to: integrate basic science and clinical disciplines and recognise the importance of exposure to the principles, practice and findings of medical research; provide a structured approach to the acquisition of clinical skills and competencies through laboratory and simulated learning and early patient contact made possible by the physical location of the School within the Flinders Medical Centre and the integration of patient care teaching and research in that environment; give students the opportunity to undertake clinical learning in diverse hospital and community environments in Adelaide, country South Australia, western Victoria and the Northern Territory; and recognise the importance of basing medical practice on a social and community view of health and illness.
