FACULTY OF MEDICINEBETWEEN THE PAST AND THE PRESENT
Since more than 23 centuries Ptolmey constructed Alexandria medicalschool and provided it with best scientists of Helipolis temple and school
and also Memphis medical library. So, it was a pride for graduates of
Alexandria school that they are belonging to it.
physician Herophilus, while the other schools were practicing anatomy on
pigs and monkeys.
The roman physician Celeus has admitted by the role of school of
Alexandria in anatomy and the excellence of scientists like Herophilus and
Arastratus that lead to evolution of surgical science in Alexandria and
transfer it to Rome
The roman Medicine took Medical specialty from the old Egyptian
Medicine; even Herodote said medicine is divided between them that each
physician deals with one disease only.
The medical school of Alexandria had the leadership in the medical
field either in diagnosis of diseases or its treatment or in knowing its causes
and symptoms. This made the school of Alexandria to be mentioned in the
old poetry as Homer said men in Egypt are more skilled in medicine than
any other human race, and it had physician that are better than the others
with their knowledge
Herodote also said that studying of any foreign physician in Egypt is
considered as a passport for his success.

Chapter (3)
The curriculum is formed of two stages, when they are accomplished
successfully; the student gets the grade of the Bachelor of Medicine and
Surgery (MBBCh).
The first Phase Pre-clerkship Phase:
This phase aims for making the student able to study the medical
sciences in the integrated system, and it consists of 6 educational semesters
through the first 3 years.
The first semester is a Preliminary semester for preparing the students
for high education in general and medical education especially. The student
gets a concentrated English course and another course to make him capable
of getting international Computer Driving license (ICDL). Moreover, the
student learns how to get the information through the E-libraries and the
available resources of the internet. He also gets courses about medical ethics
and the rules governing his faculty and his rights and duties. Then the
student starts to study the basics medical sciences in the form of educational
units which mix between the basic medical sciences that explain the
structure, function, chemistry and genes of the body and its cells in a
practical and clinical context.
Then through the next 5 semesters the student begins to study the
medical courses in the form of integrated systems. This phase represents the
base on which the second phase (the stage of dealing with patients) will
depend on. In this stage, students get to learn the basics of the medical

15/46
sciences in a deeper and more precise way. In addition, this phase will
include a course for Professional Skills Development, in which the student
starts by learning the communication skills with patients, followed by skills
of clinical examination and first aid, etc. This phase also includes the basics
of the behavioral sciences and the human rights. This course runs though the
5 semesters from the second till the sixth.
At this phase, the student also studies an introduction about the
science of epidemiology, medical statistics, and the bases of medical
research. He is also introduced to the nature of the bed work either in
hospitals or in primary medical care centers. In addition, he gets to learn the
basics of fighting the infections and also the basics of the quality control in
medical care.
The second Phase Clerkship Phase:
This phase lasts for 6 semesters and it aims for preparing the students
for professional practicing, in which they are trained through direct
interaction with patients in the general and specialized clinical departments.
It ends with a period of condensed clinical practice for 20 weeks where the
students pass again on the different clinical departments (Pre Internship
Rotation). This period is followed by anexit exam which includes all basic
clinical skills determined for the students. The students should pass this
exam in order to get the bachelor degree of medicine and surgery, but its
marks are not included in the total score of the student.

Clause (9): General conditions for registration
1- The applicant must have a certificate of the completion of the
secondary school from the Arab Republic of Egypt or an equivalent
degree from a scientific institution recognized by the University andof the Supreme Council of Universities.
Payment of tuition fees must be on time determined by the faculty.
Clause (10): Credit point system ECTS
ECTS is the system that is approved by the European Organization for
Higher Education and is applied in weighing the courses and in the
assessment of students.
It is a systematic way to describe the curriculum by identifying credit
points for parts of the educational programs, based on the effort of the
students represented by the number of study hours required to achieve the
learning objectives (ILOS).
This system is based on the fact that a student ,during the school year,
can make from 1500 1800 hours, from which every 25-30 hours are
translated into a single credit point added to the tally , so the student can
collect about 50-60 points through the year or the single academic level as a
maximum .
These points reflect the amount of the required effort per every single
unit of the curriculum. It includes the academic and training efforts such as
attending lectures and practical lessons and self learning activities,
workshops, and other scientific activities, either in the library, the hospital,
or the classrooms, or home. Therefore the system focuses on the overall
burden of students and is not restricted on the contact hours with teachers.
International Undergraduate Medical Program 17
7/31/2019 Student_s Academic Guide
18/46
Credit Points are distributed on all curricular units, either obligatory or
electives. The credit points are awarded only when the student completes his
study of all courses and pass all examinations successfully.
Total points adopted for the program: 60 credit points per year x 6
levels = 360 points distributed over the various courses.
CLAUSE (11) : learning Activities
The learning activities consist of several-pronged strategy to
achieve the intended learning outcomes and academic
standards in conformity with the national academic reference
standards.
1. Theoretical information : 40%-60% of study time
1- Developed lectures
2- Self-learning :
a. E-learning (10%) in the first year and rises gradually to replace
lectures
b. Tutorial Group discussion
c. Assignments and Presentations
d. Integrated Learning Activity (ILA)
e. Team Based Learning (TBL)
2. Practical , Clinical , and Professional skills : 60%-40%
1- Practical Lessons

The student starts practicing on these skills from the first year in a long
course that extends throughout the years of education. The practicing
takes place in a center of developing clinical skills for the first three
years , then ( from the fourth till the sixth year ) in takes place in the
different basic clinical departments including the University hospitals ,outpatient clinics , emergency departments , hospitals of the Ministry of
Health , Health Insurance and Family Medicine Centers.
Note :
- A ratio of 60% lectures, 40% practical and clinical or 40% lectures,
60% practical and clinical are determined according to the requirement
of the components of the educational unit , taking into account that the
ratio of self-education , practical education , and clinical education risesas the student progress through their study years .
- 60% - 75% of study time is specified for practical and
clinical practice in case of special courses, like computing
skills, information proficiency and professional development.
How to apply the means of self-learning?1. E-Learning : A certain percentage ( starts with about 10 % ) is
allocated from the lectures into the electronic form ( text , power point
presentation) .
A link on the internet is determined where the student can look up for
medical information in textbooks or multimedia.
2. Tutorial Classes : Students are divided into small groups ( 50
students) and they discuss in the educational meeting an identifiedsubject through questions & answers and seminars , the student should
have the basic role in leading the discussion .
International Undergraduate Medical Program 19
7/31/2019 Student_s Academic Guide
20/46
3. Integrated Learning Activity(ILA) : Students are divided into small
groups who attend a meeting that lasts for an hour twice a week with
a tutor who is responsible for this activity in the educational unit .
4. Team Based Learning :
- This activity can be applied on a group of students up to 50-100
students, in the presence of an instructor. A part of the educational
unit is determined for this activity and the students are directed to
reading information about this part in determined resources
(references, internet links, and handouts) before the meeting.
- The cession starts with giving the students an objective exam (MCQ, T&F , EMQ )whichcovers the intended learning outcomesin this
section .The exam is answered by the students individually and the
answer sheets are collected to be corrected either electronically
immediately or later on by the students themselves. Then the
students are divided into small groups and answer the questions of
the exams again together. The instructor asks each team to give its
answer for every question and then the instructor gives the correct
answer. Each team is asked to give the reasons for its answer andright and wrong answers are discussed between groups with the help
of the instructor.
- Students might be asked for criticizing the questions or determine
questions that were not clear and a better suggestion for the form of
questions.

Summary of total marks of subjects and stages
The system for grading of the students:Two Systems are used to rank the students according to total score they
obtain:I-European system ECTS:
The students are divided into two main groups: successful and failure,
and then divide each group as follows:
1) Successful students are ranked descendingly according to the total
and then divided into five grades:
A: Students with the highest 10% of the totals
B: students who constitute the following 25 %.
C: students who constitute the following 35 % after the previous one.D: students who constitute the following 25%
E: the last 10% of the successful students.
2) Failed students:
F: The highest 50% of the total failure.
FX: The following 50%
The benefit of this system is that it allows students to transfer to
universities, which follows a system of ECTS or accepted forpostgraduate studies in the same universities.
II- The current system in the Egyptian faculties:
Excellent: More than 85%
Very good: from 75 to less than 85%
Good: from 65 - to less than 75%
Fair: 60 to less than 65%
The European system ECTS can be changed into the current system
using a statistical method, depending on the highest score which the first
student gets in the same year.
