As a current MBBS student at the University of Lusaka, my experience so far has been a mix of growth, challenge, and valuable learning. The programme is academically demanding but provides a strong foundation in both theory and clinical application. The initial BSc in Medical Sciences phase helped ease us into the core medical curriculum, making the transition into more advanced MBBS studies smoother.
What I appreciate most about UNILUS is the dedication of some lecturers, especially in the pre-clinical years. They were approachable, thorough in their explanations, and genuinely interested in student success. Certain classes stood out for their practical relevance, and the integration of case-based learning has helped sharpen my critical thinking.
On the downside, some administrative delays and communication gaps, especially around scheduling and exam updates can be frustrating.
That said, I would recommend UNILUS to future students who are self-motivated and looking for a programme that balances academic flexibility with a structured curriculum. With continued improvements, especially in administration and clinical integration, the MBBS programme has great potential.
