What Is a Medicine Degree?

Saving someone’s life is perhaps one of the most remarkable feelings in the world. Even so, not so many of us have the chance to experience this. It takes passion, a strong personality and years of study to be able to work in the medical field.

Pursuing a Medical degree is not only challenging and demanding but also competitive. Medical degrees are shaped for people who show high motivation and commitment as well as interest for sciences. 

Throughout a Medicine degree, candidates are equipped with a wide range of competences, from practical abilities required for specialized hands-on tasks to communication skills needed to interact with the patients. Thus, any medical students will be able to take a simple blood sample as well as perform a complex surgical procedure.

Benefits of a Medical Degree

Undoubtedly, medicine is one of the most vital fields of work – therefore there will always be a high demand of workforce needed. The employment rate for a medical graduate student is of 90%.

Due to its diverse branches, graduates from a Medical course have a variety of career choices, according to their expertise. Nursing, radiology, anaesthetics are just some of the many specialities offered in this field. Regardless of the speciality, the most important aspect needed to be taken into consideration is that medical professionals are well-respected and well-paid all over the world. 

Additionally, graduates possess a series of transferable skills, such as logical reasoning, critical appraisal, listening, written and oral communication and many others. These assets are sought and highly valuable in most fields of work.

Medical Degree Structure

Medical courses are usually a six-year commitment, but it can vary according to the university. Most of the modern universities integrate clinical education with basic sciences from the beginning of the academic curriculum, while traditional institutions divide them into preclinical and clinical education. 

Most schools understand the importance of practical knowledge, especially in this field, therefore they encourage the students to observe professional healthcare practitioners. Another way to gain practical experience is to go to different clinics and receive specialised training, followed by actual practical work. 

No matter the practices of the university, always keep in mind that medical courses are structured differently in every country. Therefore, medical qualifications gained in one country are not necessarily recognised in another country.

    Poor students-admnistration problem resolutions

    KSMU definetly has some qualities needed to be designated as a fairly competent medical school. However, it still has a long way to go if it hopes to compete with top medical schools around the world. Also, the admnistration body lacks adeqaute problem solving skills and tends to differ or avoid problem solving altogether, leaving most students to often fend for themselves.

    my experience so far

    before coming to KSMU back in 2018 i had so many doudts about studying medicine. i wondered what my life would be like studying medicine (was I good enough? will I succeed in medicine? etc). 6 years down the road and i can say i made the best decision to come to KSMU. i have had some of the best professors teach and guide me over the years. the study environment is of standard (lab, anatomy museum, clinical stimulation center, hospital classes etc), participation in clinical research and conferences, i have the best groupmates ever, i have made good friends here. i am truly blessed and oppourtuned to be studying here.

    Medical School

    My honest review of Kursk state medical centre. When I arrived at my school, obviously it was hard settling down. A new environment far away from home, as a person of colour racism too, was experienced, mentally as a medical student, I had a lot to take in and memorize in a short period of time so that didn’t help. My lecturers were very educative and knowledgeable but some too were terrible and not understanding towards students. My journey so far has been a crazy ride, I’ve had my good days, my bad days, terrible days and my best days. We have events that let us mingle with international students, and sporting events my personal favourite being the volleyball event. My school fees are also quite affordable for a government school. feeding is also affordable, the cost of living is affordable and the apartments too are affordable. I recommend anyone transferring or enrolling to stay off campus due to the conditions of my hostel.
