College of Medicine

Since it was established in 1965, Kyung Hee University College of Medicine (KUMC) has devoted itself to the twin tasks of eradicating all diseases and educating the nation's next generation of medical experts. Throughout the years, the field of medicine has experienced the profound changes that have yielded the sophisticated innovations in both medical techniques and processes. To keep pace with these changes, the college has been leading the nation's medical field by advancing knowledge through research in biomedical oriented studies.

To become a medical doctor, a graduate awarded the M.D. must pass the National Medical Board Examination to receive his/her license. With the license, the graduate can enter an internship. After the internship, they can apply for the clinical specialty training program in an accredited hospital. Graduates may enter a graduate school to obtain a master's and then doctoral degree in basic and clinical sciences. Through the programs, the opportunity will be provided for them to gain a comprehensive understanding and to do research in basic and clinical sciences.
