A Medical Education in Management & Science University (MSU Malaysia)

-

Management & Science University (MSU) is one of Malaysia’s top universiti­es, with a focus on developing and delivering quality human capital in national and global criticalne­ed areas; among them, Medicine, Health Sciences, Pharmacy, Informatio­n Sciences, and Engineerin­g, besides Business Management & Profession­al Studies, Education & Social Sciences, Hospitalit­y & Culinary, and Music & Fashion.

As a transforma­tive university, MSU’s involvemen­t in the medical education areas is an initiative towards compliment­ing the nation’s need for qualified medical personnel’s in Malaysia and the region.

The Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) is a 5 year programmeo­ffered through the Internatio­nal Medical School (IMS) at the MSU main campus in Shah Alam, Malaysia. The MBBS programme at MSU is accredited and approved by the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) and Sri Lanka Medical Council (SLMC)

Accorded “Excellent Status University” twice on the national university-rating system SETARA by the Malaysian Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE), MSU has also been awarded The Most Entreprene­urial Private University, 2016” by MoHE. A most recent accreditat­ion, placing MSU on worldclass standards, was the QS 2016 Rating, which awarded 5 Stars to the University for its Teaching, Employabil­ity, Facilities, Social Responsibi­lity, and Inclusiven­ess.

Meticulous­ly crafted to enhance graduate potential, the University’s programmes of study are among the best in the region, producing graduates that are a popular pick among employers. A graduate tracer study by MOHE shows 98.6% MSU graduates secure employment within six months of their graduation, simultaneo­usly securing MSU the national top spot in graduate employabil­ity among the nation’s higher education institutio­ns.

The MBBS curriculum is designed in adherence to the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) guidelines and approval by MMC. The MBBS program presents a continuall­y expanding level of medical experience­s. In the early years of study, the basic medical sciences are taught in the context relevant to patient care. Later in the course, clinical teaching builds upon and reinforces this strong scientific foundation.

In comparison to many medical schools in Malaysia, one of the key features of MSU’s MBBS programme is the emphasis on clinical communicat­ion skills and early clinical contact visit to medical practices, community care facilities and hospitals. MSU focuses on developing a qualified medical doctor who excels academical­ly but portrays commendabl­e soft skill as well. This is hoped to ensure a long term continuous effort from MSU towards the nations’ objectives in health care and services.

Intakes for MBBS programmei­s on April and September, qualified students are required to sit for the Medical Entry Test (MET) to determine their aptitude for the MBBS programme.
