PROGRAMME SYNOPSIS
1. Philosophy Of The Curriculum
The philosophy of the New Integrated Curriculum (NIC) of the MBBS Course is to provide an integrated framework of the essential concepts of the scientific basis of medicine with early emphasis of clinical relevance. Important concepts are revisited in a “spiral effect” through all phases of the course. Problem-based, system based and evidence-based approaches are introduced to encourage self-directed learning and sharpen problem-solving skills. Formative and summative integrated assessments in all phases reflect the philosophy of the NIC.
The content of the medical course is divided into three main strands that run vertically through the course, namely:
(1) The scientific basis of medicine. 
(2) The doctor, patient, health and society. 
(3) Personal and professional development.
The scientific basis of medicine includes the study of the normal human body and its function (Anatomy, Biochemistry, Physiology); the body’s reaction to injury (Pharmacology, Pathology, Medical Microbiology, Parasitology,) and practice-based (clinical) medicine (Anaesthesiology, Medicine, Surgery, Paediatrics, Primary Care Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Orthopaedic surgery, Ophthalmology, Otorhinolaryngology, Psychological Medicine, Radiology, Emergency Medicine, Social and Preventive Medicine).
The Doctor, Patient, Health and Society (DPHS) includes the study of preventive, promotive, environmental and occupational health in the community; medical statistics, epidemiology, two field projects (Community Residency Programand Organisation and Management of Health Services ), Community Family Case Studies (CFCS) and family health.
Personal and Professional Development (PPD) includes improvement of learning, analytical, critical thinking and communication skills, nursing skills, medical ethics, research methodology and exposure to optional fields of interest via elective programs.
2. The Course Objectives
The overall objectives of the medical course are aimed at producing a competent doctor with a holistic approach to the practice of medicine. The graduate is expected to:
(1) Be equipped with current knowledge and skills in the practice of medicine.
