MBBS: Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery

Our five-year MBBS curriculum is future-oriented, inter-disciplinary and inter-professional in nature. The NUS MBBS course provides a holistic learning experience that exposes our students to multiple facets of healthcare and prepares them to become visionary leaders and compassionate doctors of tomorrow.

First-rate patient care begins with a holistic and integrated MBBS curriculum, so our teachers collaborate across phases and disciplines to innovate medical teaching and close learning gaps.

 

We teach our traditional subjects in an integrated fashion, so students learn holistically about body systems and medical science basics for clinical conditions.

 

We place great emphasis on treating the patient, not just the disease, to provide students with a longitudinal perspective from wellness to illness to death, and from hospital to community. We expose our students to subjects beyond the field of medicines, foster cross-disciplinary learning and opportunities, equipping them with diverse skill sets that enable them to effect physical, mental and social well-being for our population.
