NUC Approves Seven Year, Four Year MBBS/BDS Program in New Minimum Academic Standards Posted: 04/Nov/2015 Following several stakeholders meetings in the last two years and as a prelude to the formal release of the New Minimum Academic benchmark (2015), the National universities Commission has approved relevant adjustments relating to Medical/ Dental schools. Jude Chiedu of Medicalworldnigeria.com reports that a major change to essential components of the new curriculum expected to be in use from the 2016/2017 academic session is the approval of three alternative models viz; i. A seven year MBBS/BDS programme that encompass a mandatory seamless four-year acquisition of the B.Sc. (Basic Medical Science) with interest in either Anatomy/ Physiology/Biochemistry. At the end of seven years, students would have acquired the Bachelor of Basic Medical Science, Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degrees. In case of the dental programmes, the students would have acquired a degree in Basic Dental Science and Bachelor of Dental Surgery. ii. In order to allow for career change for interested non- medical health professionals, the Commission has also approved a four year programme leading to MBBS/BDS for interested and qualified graduates of Nursing, Pharmacology, Physiotherapy, Image Science, Paramedics, Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry and Pharmacology. It must be noted for such to be considered for admission they must have at the WAEC/ NECO levels minimum credit scores in Mathematics, English, Physics, Chemistry and Biology at one sitting, prior to the admissions for their first degrees. They must also have a good CGPA. iii. Admission into universities based on the current six year programme would be allowed to continue as suitable alternative based on the discretion of the University. It should be noted and emphasized that all the above degrees have the Bachelor appellation as they remain undergraduate programmes. For Specific periods of posting to the department of Family Medicine. The obvious implication here is that, the Universities should create the Department of Family Medicine following their due process. The department of pharmacology would be redsignated to the department of pharmacology and therapeutics and is now expected to provide relevant basic clinical teaching and conduct relevant professional examination in Pharmacology. They will also be expected to provide relevant clinical teaching in Therapeutics. According to the NUC, proprietors of medical and dental schools in Nigeria (both current and prospective) are requested to note the following implementing steps including relevant adjustments relating to accreditation of Medical /dental schools From 1st September 2015, both current and prospective proprietors of Medical and Dental Schools should: a. Write a letter to the Executive Secretary stating their intent and provide relevant information as available. b. On receipt, (if NUC has no obvious reasons to disqualify the application), they would be sent a copy of the BMAS for MBBS/BDS and advised firmly to ensure that they are strictly complied with. c. The setting up of medical schools is not an emergency exercise. To this end, prospective proprietors must own and have in place (prior to a request for a Resource Verification), a fully functional and well run tertiary type hospital. In the circumstance of the above not being in place, consideration for an affiliation with a tertiary government owned institution may be given only when the said university owns a medical institution fully functional with a minimum of 150 beds and a rural health medical unit. (See Appendix 4 of the BMAS). d. APre-clinical Accreditation would be expected to take place within two years of a positive Resource Verification. Students can only sit for the second MBBS professional examination (Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry) when they have a successful preclinical accreditation. The preclinical accreditation would

Yep. somthin of dt sort

. Yes you are Right my brother. Now that the number of graduate doctors are gradually increasing with little available places to do their residency/housemanship not to talk of getting work. I think in my own best Opinion (no offense meant), the following points (though not in any preferencial order) can increase a Doctor's chance of getting work in time.
1. University: this matters a lot. You know
good Nigerian Universities with a Solidly
earned accredication from time immemorial
from NUC, MDCN, NMA etc (no need to
give examples 'cos my own type of Doctor
can't
fight.)
2. Personality: Good Mental/Emotional/
behavioural
development coupled with good sense of
humour, good doctor-patient interaction.
3. Age: Graduate Doctors between the ages of
25-30 are taken in preference to those who
finish above 30.
4. Location: If you are a Doctor and you finish
from
O.A.U in Ile-ife, Osun state and you go
to places like Kebbi, Jigawa, Kano, Zamfara
etc your chances of getting a job will be
large.
5. ICT skills: Being able to perform some simple
simple computer tasks and skilled at
using modern medical electronic gadgets/
equipments is very vital too.
6. Language: Some Doctors can speak at least 3
out of the major Nigerian languages in
addition to the English they are trained with
so location may not hamper their prospect
of getting and securing work.
7. Sex: Most Female Doctors that specialise in
Obsterics and Gynaecology, Peadriatrics are
mostly employed in Hospitals esp in the
Northern areas for some ethnic/religious
reasons.
8. Politics: A medical doctor who is into student
Politics while in school either at class,
department, faculty, or Students' union level
will have little or no problems as some
connections would have been in place.
9. Travels: Some Nigerian doctors travel out of
Nigeria either to US, UK, India, Cuba etc for
some additional medical education such
ones will be treated like a diamond in the
labour market.
10.GOD: "With God all things are Possible." I
Hope I don't need to say much on this.
So, if a Doctor can have at least (in my
own opinion) 6 out of the above mentioned
criteria, then he or she can be rest assured
of being gainfully employed no matter how
worse the employment situation of thing
may be in Nigeria then.
Pls feel free to make your meaningful
comments and enlightments.

Bros. The minimum requirement for D.E into Medicine is a B.sc, meaning B.Ed, B.Tech, N.D, H.N.D etc cannot go for D.E medicine.
.

Here are some of the prominent course that goes for D.E medicine.
.
Biochemistry
Microbiology
Anatomy
Physiology
Chemistry
Biology
Med. Lab
Optometry
Med. Rehab
Zoology
Vet. Med.
Dentistry(a special kind though, 2yrs)
Human Nutrition
Nursing
Optometry
Pharmacy
