The curriculum includes a broad spectrum of courses; from anatomy, psychology, pathophysiology and epidemiology, to research design, healthcare statistics analysis, ethics and policy issues, and management principles. The courses are taught by the same distinguished faculty from the University that teach on campus, with a small student-to-faculty ratio.
