The NU School of Medicine is launching a new program to train physicians based on a hybrid International system in line with British and North American curricula and qualifications.
The proposed six-year Undergraduate Medical Program is specifically designed for talented and dedicated high school graduates who are ready to complete a rigorous and demanding course of study to become highly qualified physicians. It focuses on two critical challenges for Kazakhstan - the shortage of medical personnel and the quality training of doctors. Graduates will have the opportunity to earn two degrees: the Bachelor of Science in Medical Sciences (BMS) and the Doctor of Medicine (MD). The admission period has already begun and will be open until March 27, 2025. During this time, applicants can apply for a scholarship. Admission will remain open on a paid basis until June 12, 2025.
Professor Arman Saparov, Acting Vice Dean for Medical Education and Director of the BMS and MD programs at the NU School of Medicine, shared, “Implementing this program will reduce the time needed to train highly qualified physicians, allow us to train more doctors, and save significant funds. We plan to accept more students, including international students. The MD program has already been accredited by the Eurasian Center for Accreditation that is recognized by the World Federation for Medical Education”
The program includes two years of pre-medical training and four years of training for the Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree. Students in the program will learn the competencies and skills and obtain certifications necessary to work as a physician and practice medicine as part of a professional doctorate. Next, with an MD degree, graduates can apply to residency programs.
The NU School of Medicine trains students in a model used at top British and North American universities. The program provides access to state-of-the-art clinical facilities and the latest technology.
On November 8 at 4 PM, the NU School of Medicine will hold a presentation of the new six-year undergraduate medical program, during which detailed information on the application process and other related programs will be provided.
