Professional standards and professional ethics are the two top factors in becoming a good doctor. These two standards must be quantified to create a medical training environment of Phan Chau Trinh University (PCTU).
Laboratory practice
That is the idea of Dr. Nguyen Huu Tung, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Phan Chau Trinh University.
1. Biomedical research and application environment
Application of medical technology and biotechnology, promoting scientific research in parallel with training activities is the strategy that PCTU aims at. The University established the Center for Technical Research and Application of Genetics in Biomedical Medicine - CRAGB right in 2018, to serve the teaching goal of simultaneously research, diagnosis and clinical treatment application. Medical programs and textbooks are the integration of American advanced medical techniques with core values of medicine and Vietnamese culture. The medical ethics program must be standardized by obligation theory to medical students (SV) in clinical and research. PCTU's goal of training medical students is to bring students closer to the US medical practice degree: USMLE-1 for the 4th year and USMLE-2 for the 6th year, before graduation.
2. Clinical practice in the first year
PCTU Faculty of Medicine students will have access to all the faculties and departments of the Tam Tri General Hospitals of Tam Tri Medical Group on the first day of enrollment, helping to form the concept of the relationship between the physician and the patient. , hospital.
Training program according to the institute - school model creates a uniform compatibility between theory and practice. With a practice time of 70-80% of the total time of 6 years of study, this affiliate program will be implemented effectively in the Faculty of Medicine - PCTU. In addition, the Faculty of Medicine - PCTU builds a program to exchange teachers and students with medical schools in the US, helping students have access to advanced medicine while studying.
3. Learn in English
“In the first 2 to 3 years, the rate of using bilingual English - Vietnamese is 30%, in the following years, the rate of using English will be higher. With the support of PCTU Medical English Center, you will improve your English language skills in study as well as use your 4 English skills fluently to seize job opportunities after graduation ”, Dr. Tung said. The medical knowledge training in English also helps to improve students' ability to look up specialized documents, helping them update the extensive medical textbooks.
4. Control the number of trainees
In the first year of enrollment, PCTU plans to recruit 50 medical students. Accordingly, the number of medical students is also expected to always be lower than 100 during the training period, in order to ensure the rate of 1/4, a clinical instructor is about 4 medical students. One of the conditions to train a standard doctor is that the number of students recruited annually by medical school must be low. Many famous medical schools such as Harvard medical school, Johns Hopkins Medical school, Stanford medical school of America ..., the number of students passing medical school is about 100 or less in a year. So PCTU is also committed to following this admissions trend.
5. Make a plan to borrow money to learn
Dr. Tung thinks: “Be bold to borrow money to invest in the future. This way you will be more responsible for your studies. You will study well, do a good job to pay off this loan when you become a good and standard BS ”. Along with this point of view is the policy of linking and supporting preferential loans for students at Asia Bank (ACB) nationwide in two forms: non-mortgage loan, minimum 20 million VND and maximum 500 million dong, and loan term up to 60 months; mortgage loan, less than 100% of capital use plan, with a minimum of 20 million dong, loan term up to 180 months ...
6. Get a job right after graduation
And an attractive final commitment is that when you are well trained at the PCTU Faculty of Medicine, you will have 100% chance of being accepted to work at Tam Tri Medical Group with 4 hospitals nationwide. For BS after graduation, the minimum salary at the group is 12 million / month (not including other income). It is estimated that within 3-4 years of working here, you will be able to pay off all your loans during your school years. Of course, with a really good and standard graduate, you will be welcomed in any medical institution, hospital in the country and abroad.
