Programs
Regular 4 years MD program
The basic science program will take place on the island of St. Kitts.
The following subjects are taught, partly by didactic lectures and partly through cases presented as a problem for discussion and reasoning. Live patients will be presented emphasizing the application of basic sciences to clinical medicine. Hands on learning will be promoted.
The first four semesters will take place in St. Kitts as follows:
Semester 1
Gross Anatomy I
Biochemistry and Genetics
Microscopic and developmental Anatomy
Clinical applications and correlations
Semester 2
Gross Anatomy II
Neurosciences
Physiology
Semester 3
General Pathology
Behavioral Sciences
Microbiology
Semester 4
Pharmacology
Systemic Pathology
Introduction to Clinical Medicine-I
Semester 5
This will take place in US or St. Kitts if requested and available. Courses taught during this semester include:
Introduction to Clinical Medicine-2
Revision course and integration of Basic Sciences
Preparation for the USMLE step one Examination
During the above program regular assessments will be carried out, whether informal, formal or exit exams as a requirement for any promotion.
Students may transfer to any semester if are accepted and qualified to do so.
Clinical program
The clinical program will include core and elective courses, and regular assessments will be made as in the basic science program.
The clinical program will include core and elective courses, and regular assessments will be made as in the basic science program.
The Clinical Clerkships will be mostly at United States Hospitals, and if specifically requested, at hospitals in the United Kingdom or elsewhere.
The clinical clerkships program will run for five semesters, 16 weeks each semester. This will include six or twelve weeks core courses and elective courses.
Core courses will include: Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, Family Medicine, Obstetrics/Gynecology and Psychiatry.
Elective courses will be discussed individually.
Once all 75 weeks of required clinical rotations are completed and the student passed both USMLE Step 2 and Clinical Skills assessment and Clinical Knowledge exams, they are eligible for graduation.
6 years MD program
We offer two distinct programs for students interested in graduating as physicians. The four-year M.D. degree program is designed for students who have an undergraduate degree or have completed at least 90 college credits and all prerequisite courses as outlined for MILIK University.
The six year M.D. degree program is designed for suitably qualified students who are starting their medical career directly after finishing high school and for other students who did not complete the 90 college credits or are missing all or some prerequisite courses for the four-year M.D. program.
Pre-Medical Program will be offered in St.Kitts to suitably qualified students who are starting their medical career directly after finishing high school and for other students who did not complete the 90 college credits or are missing all or some prerequisite courses for the four-year M.D. program. Also, suitably qualified students who have achieved some credits at an accredited institution and subject to acceptance by MILIK University, may complete the requirements in St. Kitts as part of the Pre-medical program. The program consists of college level science and humanities and other courses in communication skills to prepare students for medical school. Promotion from Pre-medical program to Medical program will be based on successfully passing all required exams and fulfilling the required established criteria.
