EDUCATION
Medical education has been carried out with “Integrated Medical Education Program” since 1990 and it has been updated to the “Vertical Integration Program” at 2003-2004 academic year. The medical education offered by different departments of the faculty has been re-organized within the framework of subject integrity and the whole program has changed to an organ system-based approach from a department-based approach. This approach ensured better understanding of the diseases by the students. Please refer to the following web page for the curriculum: https://www.kisa.link/NMhM
