Language of Instruction

The medical program at UAG School of Medicine is designed to facilitate a smooth transition for students planning to return to the United States for residency.

English-Language Instruction:

  • All of our lectures are conducted in English, ensuring that students are fully immersed in the language used in U.S. medical settings.
  • The textbooks and study materials we use are in English, aligning with the resources and references commonly used in U.S. medical schools.
  • Exams are also administered in English, which helps students become familiar with the format and language of the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and other professional assessments.
Class Schedule

The typical class day of 7-8 hours (from 7am -3pm) consists of lectures with audio-visual presentations in one of the lecture halls. These are followed by laboratory studies, discussions of clinical vignettes, highly personalized small-group seminars and question-and-answer sessions guided by supervising professors and teaching assistants.
