1, degree: five-year undergraduate course, eight-year doctoral degree. Compared with the five-year system, the eight-year system saves three years in completing the doctoral degree.

2. Study plan: study basic knowledge in the first two years, clinical knowledge in the second two years, and clinical practice in the last 1 year. Eight years of basic knowledge study takes longer, and you may have to contact pure science courses such as mathematics, physics and chemistry. The clinical period is a little longer. However, the learning content of clinical medicine is basically the same as that of the five-year program.

3. Research time: There is almost no planned research time in the 5-year program, and there will be some research led by tutors in the later stage of the 8-year program in order to publish papers and obtain academic qualifications. But the time is relatively short, and the time for scientific research is not as much as that for ordinary masters or doctors.

4. About subject selection: When you need to take the postgraduate entrance examination in the last year of the five-year system, you can choose your favorite colleges and schools to apply for it, and there will be a second choice. You can choose your subjects freely in the eight-year program, but you can only study in this school until the end. You can't change schools.

5. After graduation, the quality of the eight-year program is generally higher, and the hospitals recruited are more inclined.

Clinical Medicine

Relevant systems of clinical medicine (eight-year program) in medical colleges;

1, tutorial system.

According to different learning stages, teachers of basic courses, basic medical courses and clinical courses are arranged in stages to serve as tutors for eight-year students, providing guidance and help for students in life and learning methods.

2, the implementation of diversion and elimination system.

For those who cannot adapt to learners for various reasons, the triage elimination system will be implemented, but there is no specific elimination rate. In the stage of public basic courses, basic medicine and postgraduate training, outlets are set up respectively to divert or eliminate students who can't meet the corresponding requirements stipulated by the school or don't want to enter the next stage of study.

Relevant requirements of clinical medicine (five-year system) stipulate that:

1, master the basic theories and methods of natural science related to medicine.

2. Master the basic theories and methods of basic medical disciplines.

3, master the basic theory and clinical skills of clinical medicine.
