Description:
Khalifa University of Science and Technology, in the United Arab Emirates, offers the Khalifa University MED Scholarship program to support graduate studies in medicine for students who have chosen to pursue a career that will positively impact people’s lives. Students who receive a Khalifa University (KU) MED Scholarship will be registered in the Pre-Medicine Bridge Program, which will lead to the graduate program in medicine.
The Pre-Medicine Bridge Program consists of courses that are delivered by a lecturer in person or online. As each student attending the program will come with their unique skill set and knowledge, the courses are designed to fill gaps in information as well as develop reading, comprehension and math proficiencies. By developing these skills, the program will establish whether a candidate can demonstrate advanced knowledge, and in doing so, fulfill the requirements of entry into a postgraduate medical program. Students will be assessed using the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT®).
