     The curriculum focuses on an instructional approach that enables graduates to construct new knowledge through constructivism and a multidisciplinary approach, integrating diverse knowledge from basic medical sciences and clinical sciences. It aims to promote experiential learning by implementing an Outcome-based Education (OBE) framework through self-directed problem-solving and inquiry-based learning processes to foster experience and Life-long Learning. This ensures that learners acquire comprehensive knowledge (Phumiru), moral wisdom (Phumitham), and professional skills. Furthermore, the curriculum encourages research processes and innovation development emphasizing the use of emerging technologies to enhance efficiency, along with promoting community engagement. This is intended to develop learners into researchers who can effectively address future health issues, possess high adaptability amidst rapid social and technological change (Disruption), and demonstrate international competence and competitiveness. Graduates are also expected to uphold research ethics and conduct as exemplary researchers, express love and pride in the institution, culture, and noble traditions of the nation, and be ready to serve as global citizens and vital health assets at national and international levels.

Programme’s Objectives

  • PEO1  To produce graduates capable of utilizing multidisciplinary research knowledge to create novel research and innovation for solving complex and challenging medical problems.
  • PEO2  To produce graduates who can collaborate effectively with experts from diverse fields and possess management skills to enhance the quality of research.
  • PEO3  To produce graduates capable of monitoring advancements in technology and new knowledge in medical sciences, enabling them to create research that keeps pace with social and health dynamics.
  • PEO4  To produce graduates who can perform their duties responsibly, considering social impact, and are committed to improving the quality of life, well-being, and health of communities.
  • PEO5  To produce graduates with a comprehensive understanding of paraclinical sciences and the ability to integrate basic medical science knowledge with clinical applications to advance research and medical service outcomes.

Programme’s Highlights

     This curriculum is focused on the integration of basic and clinical sciences to generate research capable of solving health problems at both national and international levels. This is achieved through the Bench-to-Bedside approach and multidisciplinary collaboration to connect various laboratory research findings for practical clinical application. Furthermore, the curriculum incorporates cutting-edge technologies such as AI, IoT, Big Data, and Machine Learning as essential components, enabling learners to develop skills that support the innovation-driven economy and efficiently transition into professionals in research and health data management. Concurrently, the program utilizes digital platforms and online instruction as a means of knowledge dissemination, ensuring learners have continuous access to content and flexibility in managing their personal study schedules. In addition to developing academic skills, the curriculum encourages students to create practical medical innovations and fosters ethics, morality, and social responsibility. These attributes are nurtured through learning experiences within hospital wards, communities, and dedicated medical ethics courses. Collectively, these components will shape graduates into leaders who not only possess academic competence but also deeply understand human nature, and are ready to apply their acquired knowledge to sustainably elevate the quality of life nationally and internationally.
