Curriculum Overview
Medical School curriculum consists of seven years. The curriculum leading to the Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree is designed to provide a medical education that prepares graduates comprehensively for residency training, provides them the experience on which to base their career selection, and prepares them for professional lives of continuous learning.
During the first half of medical school, the curriculum is built around a series of interdisciplinary blocks to allow the student to connect and link relevant scientific material to clinical conditions. The second half of the curriculum provides the students with a series of required experiences to allow them to participate in a broad range of medical specialties and settings, as well as the opportunity for focused areas of clinical activity as they prepare for their career choices.
Dentistry Schoolcurriculum consists of six years. At GOUMS, we believe dentists are more than technicians and must develop skills in critical thinking, health promotion, interpersonal skills, cultural competency, and practice management to be successful. Fundamental knowledge will be presented during a two-year period including courses in systemic and oral histology, head and neck gross anatomy, and general and systemic pathology. Basic biological principles, including the structure, function, and interrelationships of the body systems as they pertain to oral health, and oral disease are taught by dedicated faculty members.
Within the next 4 years, clinical correlates and small group learning contribute to the integration of the basic and clinical sciences as they relate to oral disease prevention and maintenance of health. Preclinical experiences in dental anatomy and operative dentistry provide the foundation for general dentistry procedures.
Other undergraduate fields (B.Sc) consist of four years of education.
