Outstanding Clinician Scholar

  • Highlights

    The Outstanding Clinician Scholar Program will recruit Tsinghua University’s undergraduate students from diverse disciplines to study for a degree in clinical medicine. Graduates will be conferred the M.D. (Doctor of Medicine) degree. This program aims to cultivate the future generation of outstanding clinicians, scholars and leaders with strong humanistic values, robust scientific literacy and interdisciplinary knowledge.

    This program adopts the integration of an organ system-based curriculum to train students’ clinical practice competence through four modules: introduction to medicine, organ system-based learning, clinical specialty learning and clinical practice.

    In addition to teaching systematic medical knowledge and training clinical skills, this program will also provide courses on professionalism, medical humanities, clinical research ability and leadership throughout the process. These courses will help to cultivate students' healthcare and research capabilities that integrate medical and multidisciplinary knowledge to solve complex clinical problems, foster humanistic literacy and professionalism.

    Moreover, this program will also provide unique opportunities for overseas exchanges and studies. Students will have access to world-class medical centers in countries such as the U.S., U.K., Australia, and Singapore. This will help them develop a broad international perspective, strategic insight into medical trends, strong leadership, and global competence.

    This unique curriculum of the Outstanding Clinician Scholar Program will train students through diversified pathways, highlighting the core value of ‘Tsinghua New Medicine’. We believe there will be many more clinicians, physician-scientists, physician-engineers, physician-inventors and medical administration experts graduating from the Outstanding Clinician Scholar Program in the future. They will become the most outstanding “medical+X” versatile talents in support of the Health China initiative, national rejuvenation, and the promotion of human health and well-being.

    Welcome talents who are interested in medicine to join us!
