Positioning of the programme within the University cursus
The bachelor's degree entitles access to the master's of Medicine.
The medical profession will, however, only be accessible after complementary professional training (complementary master's) which comes after the completion of the master's of medicine.
The professional perspectives for a Doctor in medicine are numerous :
- he may either opt for medicinal healing and therefore orientate himself towards general medicine or specialised medicine. The choice of any of these professions will nevertheless involve specialised training, essentially of a practical nature, lasting from 2 to 7 years.
- or he may orientate himself to the practice of non-curative medical activites : this is the field of public health and the medico-legal domain.He may likewise choose to opt for research and join a laboratory at a university or in industry.
