The Clinical Sciences Program comprises of an intensive 72 weeks of physician-supervised Clinical Rotations comprising of 48 weeks of Core Rotations and 24 weeks of Elective Rotations at our teaching affiliate hospitals and specialized clinical facilities in USA and Caribbean. During the Rotations/Clerkship, the students participate in supervised patient care rotating through various medical specialties and sub-specialties. The students receive personal guidance from the clinical faculty to develop essential skills and knowledge.
Clinical Rotation is undoubtedly one of the most exciting phases of the student's medical education experience. Since AUB students are given hands-on experience from the first semester of the MD Program, their transition into the clinical rotations is with confidence and knowledge to succeed. Such training allows the students to further hone their skills in patient examination, diagnostic evaluation and critical thinking through direct patient care.
