1.3 History

The Faculty of Medicine was established as the first faculty of McGill University in 1829. It dates its origin to 1823 when four staff members of the recently opened Montreal General Hospital founded the Montreal Medical Institution in order to offer lectures to students of medicine. In 1833, four years after the Institution became the Faculty of Medicine, William Leslie Logie was awarded the degree of Doctor of Medicine and Surgery and became the first McGill, and the first Canadian medical, graduate. In 1862 the degree was changed to its present designation, Doctor of Medicine and Master of Surgery (M.D.,C.M.) and in 1872 it was conferred upon the Faculty's most illustrious graduate, William Osler. Osler served on the faculty from 1874 to 1884 before going on to the University of Pennsylvania, Johns Hopkins University, and Oxford University. He was instrumental in developing the Health Sciences Library, which had its origin in the Montreal Medical Institution and which now contains over 285,000 volumes and 4,500 periodicals, and left to it his extensive collection of books devoted to the history of medicine.

The land occupied by the University, deeded to it by James McGill, lies in the heart of Montreal on the southern slope of Mount Royal. The medical faculty offices are located in the McIntyre Medical Sciences Building which lies higher on the flank of the mountain on Promenade Sir-William-Osler at Pine Avenue. The Health Sciences Library, the Osler Library of the History of Medicine, and a number of the departments of the Faculty are located in this building. The Strathcona Anatomy and Dentistry Building, the Montreal Neurological Institute and hospital of the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), founded in 1887, are situated a half mile east of the McIntyre Building while the Montreal General Hospital of the MUHC, relocated in 1955 from its original site south of the University, lies a half mile to the west. The Montreal Children's Hospital of the MUHC, the Sir Mortimer B. Davis-Jewish General Hospital, St.Mary's Hospital and the Douglas Hospital are also teaching/affiliated institutions. In addition, there are nine centres and units specializing in A.I.D.S.; artificial cells and organs, cancer research; host resistance; human genetics; medical education; non-linear dynamics; nutrition and food science; aerospace medical research; medical physics; age and aging; and in biomedical ethics.

1.4 Mission Statement

The Faculty of Medicine affirms the mission of McGill University as follows:

The advancement of learning through teaching, scholarship, and service to society: by offering to outstanding undergraduate and graduate students the best education available; by carrying out scholarly activities judged to be excellent when measured against the highest international standards; and by providing service to society in those ways for which we are well-suited by virtue of our academic strengths.

Within this context, the mission of the Faculty of Medicine is to pursue internationally significant scholarship and to provide undergraduate, graduate and professional programmes of the highest academic quality so that we may contribute to the well being of mankind.

We affirm the following objectives in order to accomplish our mission:

1. Education

The health-care professionals who are graduates and trainees of the Faculty will be well-prepared to address the present and future health needs of the Canadian population. They will be oriented to preserving health, technically competent, adept at solving problems, capable of functioning as part of a multi-disciplinary team and committed to life-long learning both for themselves and their patients. They will exhibit ethical behaviour and compassion in dealing with patients, restraint in using health resources, and an inquiring attitude towards the mechanisms of health and disease. Finally, our programmes will be rooted in a scholarship of education designed to the development and exploitation of modern pedagogical techniques.

2. Research

The Faculty's research programs will contribute to the understanding of the basic mechanisms of health and disease and develop and evaluate clinical interventions to address health care needs. The research will emphasize collaboration between basic and clinical sciences, and between members of our Faculty and researchers in other disciplines. The faculty will encourage and support outstanding research trainees and research training programs. Our research will encompass the scholarship of discovery and integration.

3. Service

Members and trainees of the Faculty will provide exemplary, scientifically based health services to the McGill target population and will participate actively in national and international professional organizations. Our stance will encompass a scholarship of application whose aim is to ensure that available and new knowledge are used to improve the care and well being of society.

Osler Society

The Osler Society was founded in 1921 to perpetuate the memory and teaching of Sir William Osler, the most illustrious graduate and professor of the Faculty of Medicine at McGill. Through the presentation of lectures and seminars by students and guest lecturers on topics in the medical humanities, the Society strives to uphold Osler's ideals of a liberal medical education.

Meetings are held throughout the academic year approximately once a month. In the fall, the Osler Lecture is given by a distinguished guest. It is followed by the Osler Banquet, a formal dinner in the grand tradition of the Society. Staff, students and the public are welcome at all Osler Society functions. Our website is www.med.mcgill.ca/oslerweb.

Phi Delta Epsilon

The Phi Delta Epsilon International Medical Fraternity is a professional, coeducational organization with a membership of over 25,000 students, interns, residents, and practicing physicians.

The McGill chapter was founded in 1926 to promote the highest ethical, scientific, and educational standards in the field of medicine. The chapter's activities reflect their long-term commitment to non-profit community service as well as addressing the need among medical students for a supportive, relaxed environment.

Phi Delta Epsilon's international network of graduate members also offers their student members many benefits, including: funding for a variety of projects; advice and support in the selection of electives, research and residency positions; awards for academic and research excellence, and for outstanding community service; low-interest student loans; regional and international conventions. Our website is www.phide.org.

McGill Journal of Medicine

The McGill Journal of Medicine (MJM) is a scholarly scientific journal providing an international forum for university students to publish original research, case reports, reviews and expository essays in any field of medicine. Established in May 1994, MJM is published and produced entirely by students in the Faculty of Medicine and in Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies at McGill.

Based on the principles of student excellence and education, MJM is unique among existing medical journals. It is the only student-run scientific journal devoted to publishing the original research of students exclusively, on an international scale. MJM has established a national and international base of authors. Please see reviews of MJM in the New England Journal of Medicine (336:885;1997) and JAMA (278:1461-2;1997) and visit online at www.medicine.mcgill.ca/mjm.

Medical and Dental Christian Fellowship (MDCF)

In 1988, several students from Med I and II started the Medical Christian Fellowship, which has since become the MDCF. This group created a place for Christians in medical training to meet weekly for Bible study, encouraging each other in continuous spiritual growth. In addition, various speakers (doctors, faculty, medical missionaries, etc.) expose the members to different ways to effectively integrate faith and medical practice by sharing with members their experiences as Christians in the medical profession.

Ranging from Roman Catholic to Lutheran and from Greek Orthodox to Calvinist, the group covers a large spectrum of denominations and enjoys the richness in thought such a diversity brings. Even though the MDCF is an independent group, it is associated with the Christian Medical and Dental Society (CMDS), the Canada and U.S. wide organization of Christian doctors and dentists.

Medical Students for Social Responsibility (MSSR)

MSSR is a group that recognizes that social, economic, and political factors largely determine the health of individuals and populations. The group's objective is to sensitize participants to alternative aspects of health and to provide a framework for future activism.

2 Scholarships, Bursaries, Prizes, Medals and Loan Funds

The Faculty of Medicine, M.D., C.M. program, has adopted a primarily needs-based approach to its scholarships and bursaries. This acknowledges the very high academic performance already achieved by students entering the Faculty. Many of the funds under the Faculty's jurisdiction are awarded on the basis of good academic standing and financial need, and are administered by the Office of Student Aid. Financial aid forms are available from the Student Aid Office, 3600 McTavish Street, Montreal (www.mcgill.ca/studentservices).

Entrance scholarships are available for students registered in the double programs: M.D./M.B.A. and M.D./Ph.D.

Entrance scholarships are also available for students accepted to the Med-P program. In the first year of the Med-P program, students are registered in the Faculty of Science and hence are eligible for university entrance scholarships; these scholarships are not renewed once the student is promoted into the Faculty of Medicine. Continued financial assistance can be provided by the Office of Student Aid.

Bursaries are available to enable students to carry out research projects during their medical studies. These are awarded, on a competitive basis, in the winter term and also during summer vacation. For more information, please inquire with the Associate Dean for Research in the Faculty of Medicine or consult the website at www.medicine.mcgill.ca/research/bursary.

Students who demonstrate outstanding performance are recognized through the awarding of prizes, medals and J.W. McConnell Awards. Receipt of an award is permanently recorded on the transcript of each recipient. This information is also included in the Dean's Letter of evaluation.

3 Programs of Study, Admission and Curriculum

3.1 Undergraduate Programs of Study

The Faculty of Medicine offers a four-year undergraduate medical curriculum. Students are ordinarily admitted into the first year of this program but admission is also available to Québec students by means of a 5-year Med-P program directly after CÉGEP.

An M.D./Ph.D. program is offered for students interested in a research career in academic medicine.

For students interested in both Medicine and Management, the Faculties of Medicine and Management offer a five-year program leading to an M.D./M.B.A. degree.

The Faculty does not accept students for part-time medical studies.
The language of instruction is English.

3.2 Requirements for Admission

3.2.1 M.D., C.M. (Four-year) Program

Applicants must have received an undergraduate degree, or be in the final year of a course of study at a recognized college or university leading to an undergraduate degree consisting of 120 credits over eight terms following completion of high school. However, students who have received a diploma of collegial studies (CEGEP) in the province of Quebec must have completed 90 credits (six terms) in a Quebec university to obtain the required degree. Similarly, Quebec residents who, having received credit for their diploma of collegial studies, elect to complete their undergraduate degree outside the province of Quebec (other Canadian provinces, U.S.A. or elsewhere) will be required to complete an undergraduate degree with a minimum of 90 credits (six terms) at the non-Quebec university to be eligible to apply. Students who fail to complete a DEC before transferring to a non-Quebec university must complete a four-year degree. Successful candidates must be in receipt of the bachelor's degree by the time of registration for the first year of the medical curriculum.

Although the Faculty attempts to ensure by means of the specific requirements listed below that all students have an adequate preparation in science, it also wishes to encourage students from a variety of backgrounds to select medicine as a career. Prospective applicants are therefore advised to pursue courses of study, whether in the natural or social sciences or the humanities, which appeal to them and which have as their aim a broad education and intellectual training rather than merely anticipating the medical curriculum. In all programs of study, to be admissible prospective applicants should have carried a full load of courses (15 credits per term). Official transcripts must have numerical or letter grades. Narrative transcripts are not acceptable.

SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS

These consist of the following courses and the Medical College Admission Test.
One full year (2 terms) university-level course, with laboratory work, in each of:
General biology
General chemistry
Organic chemistry
Physics.

It is important to note that in all of the above courses Pass/ Fail grades are not acceptable.

Prerequisite courses completed more that eight years ago must be repeated. Exception may be made for applicants with advanced degrees in the material concerned.
University-level courses in biochemistry or cell and molecular biology are strongly recommended.

MEDICAL COLLEGE ADMISSION TEST

All applicants who wish to apply to the M.D., C.M. program starting in August 2005 must have taken the MCAT by August 14, 2004. This test is conducted by the MCAT Program Office, P.O. Box 4056, Iowa City, IA 52243; telephone (319) 337-1357, and is given each year in the spring and fall at various centres in Canada, the U.S. and other countries.

The MCAT assesses mastery of basic concepts in biology, chemistry, and physics; facility with scientific problem-solving and critical thinking; and writing skills. The skills and concepts tested are those identified by physicians and medical educators as prerequisite for the practice of medicine. Information regarding the MCAT as well as practice tests can be obtained from the AAMC Publications Department, 2450 N Street, NW, Washington, DC 2450N-1127, U.S.A. Telephone: (202) 828-0416. Web site: www.aamc.org/students/mcat.

The test should be retaken if it was written more than three years before the date of application. For applicants whose first language is not English, this fact will be taken into account in assessing the results of the test.

FOREIGN MEDICAL GRADUATES

Applicants who are Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents, who satisfy current Quebec residency requirements and who hold a medical degree awarded by a recognized university outside of Canada or the U.S., may be eligible to apply to the first year of the M.D.,C.M. program if:

The criteria for selection will be identical to those applying to the M.D.,C.M. program with a bachelor's degree. The foreign medical degree and its GPA will be substituted for a bachelor's degree.

3.2.2 M.D./M.B.A. Program

The M.D./M.B.A. program recognizes that physicians will be increasingly involved in the growing partnerships between business and health/sickness care. The program will graduate a group of doctors with skills uniquely directed towards management in the health care sector. This will provide opportunity to compete for positions in a growing niche of physician-managers who will be found in all facilities from the smallest clinic to the largest tertiary health care facility, from research laboratory to university or hospital medical departments.

This is a five-year program in which the first year from September to the following July is spent in the Faculty of Management. To be promoted and registered into the medical portion of the M.D./ M.B.A. program, students must have successfully completed by July 31, 2005 all the courses and projects which are required in the first year of the joint program. Elements of health management and practicums will be integrated into the elective opportunities in the regular four-year medical curriculum. At graduation, graduates will receive an M.B.A. from the Faculty of Management and an M.D.,C.M. from the Faculty of Medicine.

Acceptance into this program has identical requirements as those required for the M.D.,C.M. Program.

Cost of Study:

Tuition fees for the first three terms (fall, winter, and summer) of the joint M.D./M.B.A. program are $30,000 for International students, $6,259.47 for non-Quebec Canadian students, and $2,502.45 for Quebec students. Figures are given in Canadian dollars and are subject to change without further notice. Student services, administrative, society fees and M.B.A. computer fees are not included. Tuition for the balance of the M.B.A. portion of the joint program will be prorated on a per credit basis.

Applications must be submitted no later than November 15, 2004. Further information can be obtained from: Program Administrator M.D./M.B.A.Program, McIntyre Medical Sciences Building, 3655 Promenade Sir-William-Osler, Montreal, Quebec, H3G 1Y6. Telephone (514) 398-3517. Fax (514) 398-4631.

3.2.3 M.D./Ph.D. Program

Students interested in a research career in academic medicine may wish to apply for admission to the M.D./Ph.D. program. This is a seven-year program in which the basic and clinical sciences portion of the medical curriculum are completed from September of year one to December 31 of year two, prior to the beginning of full-time graduate studies. The latter are expected to last three, but no more than four, years by which time all course work and the research requirements for the Ph.D. degree must have been completed and a thesis submitted. The defense of the thesis will ordinarily take place at a later date. From January of year five to May of year seven students will complete the requirements for the M.D. degree.

Acceptance into the M.D./Ph.D. program is conditional upon fulfilling the requirements for and being accepted into the four-year medical curriculum and acceptance into a graduate program by one of the departments and the Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies Office. Students currently enrolled in the first year of the medical curriculum at McGill and who have a bachelor's or master's degree are eligible to apply before October 1 of second year.

Applications must be submitted no later than November 15, 2004. Further information can be obtained from: Program Administrator, M.D./Ph.D. Program, McIntyre Medical Sciences Building, 3655 Promenade Sir-William-Osler, Montreal, QC, H3G 1Y6.

3.4 Procedures for Selection and Notification

3.4.1 Selection

Selection of students by the Admissions Committee is based upon academic achievement at the time of application and an assessment of personal characteristics and accomplishments.

Academic Achievement

Academic achievement is determined from the academic record in undergraduate studies and the result of the Medical College Admission Test. While completed graduate degrees are taken into consideration, applicants should know that the undergraduate CGPA and MCAT scores are the major consideration in measuring academic performance.

Applicants to the M.D.,C.M. program should have undergraduate CGPAs of 3.5 or better and similar grades in science prerequisites. They should have a total of 30 or more in the MCAT scores.

Academic achievement by applicants to the Med-P program will be evaluated on the basis of CRC scores and performance in the math/science prequisites. For the entering class of 2003, applicants invited for interviews had a CRC of 34 or higher.

A maximum of 160 students are accepted into the first year class. Students recently accepted had the following academic profile (mean scores): GPA 3.77 (4 point scale); CRC 36.21; MCAT: Verbal Reasoning 9.74, Physical Sciences 10.9, Biological Sciences 11.35, overall score 31.99.

Personal Characteristics and Accomplishments

The initial assessment of personal qualities and achievements is made from a study of the autobiographical letter submitted by all candidates. The letter should give the Committee a clear image of the applicant and the personal characteristics and experiences which make him/her particularly suitable for the study and practice of medicine.

On the first page only, applicants should describe briefly the basis for their decision to be a doctor and detail their experience and exposure to health care in general and more specifically to sick persons, doctors, and other health care workers. They should show that they understand all the implications of their choosing to study and practice medicine.

The remaining three pages should be devoted to examples of leadership, initiative, originality, empathy, compassion, service to others, whether in the community of their institution of study or beyond, evidence of communication skills, the ability to work in teams and interact positively with others. The ability to take initiative, excel in one's studies while engaging in depth in such things as team sports, student government, music, theatre, drama, art, creative writing and other endeavours which require dedication, determination and the capacity to handle the stress of coping with different enterprises are of particular importance to the Committee. The effort expended, the importance of the applicant's role, individual responsibility and level of achievement should be explained.

Clearly indicate when the activities cited began and ended.

While past activities may be important to this narrative, more recent activities generally carry more weight with the Committee. Work experiences, travel, cultural interests and achievements or hobbies which the candidate can relate directly to his/her suitability for medicine should be mentioned. Personal qualities cited should be substantiated by examples of life experience to make them credible. Applicants not currently enrolled as students should indicate clearly what they have done since graduation. The date and outcome of the applicant's most recent medical examination should be given and any medical problems or time missed from studies because of illness should be briefly included.

Interview

The assessment of the autobiographical letter, together with the confirmatory statements and amplifications contained in the reports from those referees chosen by the student, form the basis for a decision on whether an applicant possessing the academic performance criteria is to be invited for an interview. The files of candidates who are not invited for interviews are not considered further.

The decisions described above are final and, once made, are not subject to appeal.

3.4.2 Notification

Applicants from outside of the province of Quebec will be notified as soon as possible after March 31, 2005, whether they have been accepted, placed on the waiting list, or not accepted. Residents of Quebec applying for the M.D., C.M. program will be notified as soon as possible after May 1, 2005. Decisions for the Med-P program will be mailed on May 15, 2005. Acceptance is conditional upon receipt of a bachelor's degree (M.D.,C.M., M.D./Ph.D., M.D./M.B.A. programs) or DCS (Med-P program) and upon the successful completion by the time of registration of any studies currently in progress, including the requirements for admission, at a level comparable to past academic performance.

Successful applicants must respond within two weeks to the offer of a place in the entering class.

For students accepted into the M.D.,C.M. program, notification of acceptance must be accompanied by a deposit of $500, which will be applied against tuition. The deposit is refundable up to May 15, 2005 for U.S. and International students, and up to June 15, 2005 for Out-of-Province Canadian applicants and Quebec residents applying to the M.D.,C.M. program.

For students accepted into the Med-P program, notification of acceptance of the offer must be accompanied by a deposit of $300, which will be applied against tuition. The deposit is refundable up to July 15, 2005.

It is strongly recommended that accepted applicants have a personal computer or personal digital assistant (PDA). Students should also have software for word processing, e-mail and Web browsing.

3.4.3 Compulsory Immunization Program

The basic Compulsory Immunization information is outlined in the General University Information, section  "Vaccination/Immunization Requirements". Students who are accepted for the study of medicine will receive details of the immunization requirements with their letter of acceptance. Two immunization issues must, however, be taken into consideration prior to entry into medical school.

Varicella (chicken pox):

Students who do not have a clear, documented history of having had this childhood infection, must have their serology verified prior to registration. (It should be noted that a University-affiliated hospital may deny the student access to a clinical rotation if he/she is potentially contagious; this may impact on the student's studies.) In the event that the student's titre is negative, it is highly recommended that the student have a Varicella vaccination prior to registration. Failure to do so will compromise clinical rotations and may impact on the student's graduation date.

Hepatitis B and C:

These are serious and potentially contagious diseases, and all prospective medical students who are seronegative for Hepatitis B must be vaccinated before they will be permitted contact with patients. Any student who, in pre-vaccination testing, is found to be carrying the Hepatitis B virus will not be permitted to perform medical procedures involving needles, scalpels, or other sharp objects as this poses a potential risk to the patient. This will severely limit the student's ability to participate fully in the medical school program and his/her ultimate career options may be severely restricted. Students who know themselves to be seropositive for Hepatitis B and/or C have an obligation to notify the Dean's Office immediately upon entry into the program. Early discussion is essential and specific measures will be undertaken by the Dean's Office. The student will be referred to the Infected Health Care Worker Committee of the McGill University Teaching Hospital Council. In consultation with this Committee, modifications to clinical rotations will be made. Specific career counseling will be given. Students will be advised not to select residency programs where patient safety would be put at risk. Should core clinical rotations need to be modified notation of this will be made in the Dean's Letter/Medical Student Performancer Evaluation form (a document required for residency application process). Should a student apply to a residency program where patient safely would be put at risk, the Dean's Office has the duty to notify the Program Director that the student is seropositive.

Applicants who know that they are carrying either of these viruses should consider carefully their intention to become a doctor and govern themselves accordingly.

3.4.4 Deferred Admissions

Admission into the first year of the M.D.,C.M. program may be deferred for a period of one year for a defined academic purpose to obtain an advanced degree. However, students currently enrolled in graduate programs are expected to apply only when they are in the final year of that program.

A written request which includes the details of the proposed academic program must be submitted no later than August 1st of the year in which deferral is sought.

Deferred admission is not granted for the Med-P program.

3.5 Non-Quebec Students

The government of Quebec provides two quotas under which non-Quebec students may be admitted to study medicine at McGill.

Should applicants be accepted under either of these quotas, their acceptance and obligations to same will be for the duration of their medical studies, regardless of any change in citizenship or residency status. The candidate, in accepting such an offer of admission, will accept these conditions.

As a measure to control manpower in the province, the Quebec government requires that all students who are not Quebec residents must agree in writing at the time of registration that if, upon completion of the four-year curriculum and residency training, they wish to remain in the province, they will practice for a defined period of time in one of the areas designated as medically underserved. It should be noted that this requirement does not interfere in any way with the right to study medicine in Quebec or, following graduation, to take residency training in Quebec.

3.5.1 American Students

The Faculty encourages applications from United States citizens and offers admission to a considerable number of such applicants each year. Students accepted for admission must have a student authorization by the date of registration. Instructions for making application for this authorization are included with the letter of acceptance.

The Faculty of Medicine is accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education of the AAMC and AMA, and studying at McGill is equivalent to studying medicine in a U.S. medical school. U.S. students studying at McGill write the USMLE exams in the same way and at the same time as U.S. students studying in U.S. medical schools.

While U.S. medical students are eligible to do residency training at McGill, U.S. program directors recognize the high calibre of McGill graduates and those students are very competitive in their U.S. residency applications.

Students should know that acceptance into residency programs of any province are governed by province-specific rules and regulations. Currently, only Quebec accepts McGill Visa students into residency programs.

Tuition for non-Canadian students is appreciably higher than for Canadian students. U.S. citizens benefit, however, with respect to all costs from a favourable exchange rate on the Canadian dollar.

3.5.2 International Students

The Faculty also encourages applications from citizens of other foreign countries and offers admission to a number of such students each year. Most applicants have undertaken some or all of their undergraduate studies in Canadian or U.S. colleges. Students accepted for admission must have a student authorization by the date of registration. Instructions for making application for this authorization are included with the letter of acceptance.

It is the personal responsibility of the International students to ensure that they fulfill all the licensing requirements of the country in which they intend to practice medicine. A medical degree does not necessarily confer the right to practice. Therefore, any International student must submit along with his/her application form, a letter issued by the responsible authorities in his/her country indicating that they recognize the medical degree awarded by the Faculty of Medicine at McGill University and that this degree will enable this student to practice medicine in his/her country.

Students should know that acceptance into residency programs of any province are governed by province-specific rules and regulations. Currently, only Quebec accepts McGill Visa students into residency programs.

At the present time, international students wishing to pursue residency training in the USA should be aware that the appropriate route to do so is the J-1 Visa.

3.5.3 Out-of-Province Canadian Students

A very limited number of places will be made available by the Quebec government.

3.6 Registration

New Students

All students entering the four-year M.D.,C.M. program in 2004-05 must initiate registration on the Web by adding the registration course REGN-RCMD on Minerva.

The Minerva Registration period for newly admitted Medicine students is August 3 - August 10, 2004.

In order for the official registration in the M.D.,C.M. program at McGill to be confirmed, the student must also present him or herself, with proper documentation, at the Faculty Registration and Orientation on Wednesday, August 11, 2004. ATTENDANCE IS COMPULSORY. Failure to attend will result in cancellation of the student's offer of admission to the program and registration.

For further information, consult the Web at www.mcgill.ca/minerva and the registration information being mailed to incoming students in June.

Returning Students

All returning students must register for 2004-05 on the Web by adding the registration course REGN-RCMD on Minerva. Returning students must register by the deadline specified or pay the appropriate late registration fees.

For further information, consult the Web at www.mcgill.ca/ minerva and the registration information mailed to returning students in early April.

3.7 Collège des Médecins du Québec

All students studying medicine in a university of the province of Quebec are required by law to register with the Collège des Médecins du Québec by October 15 of their first year of study. Registration packages are made available to accepted students. A student who fails to comply with this requirement will not be permitted to continue in the program.

3.9 Courses for the Degree of M.D.,C.M.

Four years of medical study in the University leads to the degree of M.D.,C.M.; an additional period of postgraduate training is necessary for licensure.

While the Faculty's administration exercises a general supervision of arrangements for postgraduate applications, the Faculty of Medicine does not assume the responsibility for providing residencies for students.

Educational Goals of the Curriculum

The primary focus of the undergraduate program is to teach and help the students apply core knowledge, skills and attitudes required of a medical professional. The program will emphasize the fundamental sciences and scientific methodology as pillars of medical knowledge. It will promote and provide opportunities for participation in research and other scholarly activities contributing to the development of new knowledge. It will nurture and enhance an understanding of the meaning of, as well as the personal qualities and values essential to the Physician as Healer and Professional. It is the goal of this school to train professionals who will apply scientific principles throughout their career and who will be able to meet the most stringent international standards of the medical profession.

The student must understand normal and abnormal biological structure and function; normal and abnormal psychology and behaviour; the biological, social, psychological, cultural, environmental and economic determinants of health and illness; the ethical, professional and legal responsibilities in medical practice; and the conceptual framework for interdisciplinarity. The student must acquire the basic clinical skills to assess and manage patients of all ages: these include communicating effectively with patients, families and colleagues; obtaining a comprehensive clinical history; performing a physical examination; performing routine procedures appropriate to the setting; and initiating appropriate investigations and treatment plans (preventive, acute, chronic, intensive, rehabilitative and palliative). The student must solve problems, make decisions, and address ethical dilemmas in the clinical context. The student must demonstrate an ability to collaborate in an interdisciplinary approach to patient/family centered care, and assume a leadership role when appropriate.

The student must demonstrate a commitment to life-long learning and scholarship, develop the skills to search, retrieve, manage and appraise biomedical information, and be able to evaluate the design and results of medical research. The student must behave with commitment, integrity, honesty and compassion.

Upon completion of the medical undergraduate program, the graduate will be able to function responsibly in a supervised clinical setting at the level of an undifferentiated physician. A detailed description of the goals and objectives can be found on the Undergraduate Medical Education Office Web site www.medicine. mcgill.ca/ugme.

3.10 Standards of Behaviour

The teacher/learner relationship is based on mutual trust, respect and responsibility. The Faculty of Medicine therefore has many legitimate expectations related to the behaviour of students and faculty members. A Code of Conduct for the undergraduate medical program is printed in the Students' Handbook (distributed at orientation) and may be reviewed on the Web at www.medicine. mcgill.ca/ugme. The Faculty is committed to providing a learning environment which respects this Code. Student/faculty harassment, abuse and mistreatment are not tolerated. An evaluation protocol for professional behaviour is being piloted in selected clinical rotations. It is anticipated that evaluation of professionalism will be a requirement for all curricular components during the year 2005-2006. Students who demonstrate inappropriate professional conduct or are found guilty of a criminal offence may be dismissed from the program.

3.11 Leaves of Absence

Leaves of absence are generally discouraged and with few exceptions are granted only for reasons of health or family crises. Requests for leaves must be discussed with the Associate Dean. Permission is granted by the Dean. A request must be accompanied by supporting documentation (e.g., a letter from the student's physician/counsellor). In general, a medical leave is granted for up to one year. The Faculty reserves the right to impose a limitation on the number as well as the total duration of leaves.

A student returning from a medical leave must provide supporting documentation from the treating physician/counsellor. These documents must state that the student is capable of resuming his/her studies.

Should a prolongation be requested, the Faculty of Medicine reserves the right to require a second opinion from a Faculty- designated physician.

Once the leave has been approved by the Deans, the student's registration and fees must be clarified with the Student Records Officer. Students may be required to forfeit all or part of their tuition fees. All students must have an interview with the Student Aid Office to reassess impact on financial aid.

Leaves of absence will be noted on official transcripts and Dean's Letter/Medical Student Performance Evaluation form.

3.12 Curriculum Review

The Faculty realizes the need for constant review of the medical curriculum that is necessitated by:

A permanent Faculty Curriculum Committee, with student representation, is charged with the task of reviewing the curriculum and recommending any modifications of time allocation or content. M.D., C.M. curriculum renewal for the teaching of physicianship is currently under way. These modifications may be implemented at any time during the M.D., C.M. program.

3.13 Evaluation System

The Evaluation System is multifaceted and under constant review by the Faculty. The Faculty reserves the right to change any of these rules and regulations at any time, although in general such changes will not come into effect in the middle of a Promotion Period. For complete Faculty regulations, reference should be made to the Faculty of Medicine Student Handbook which is updated annually on the Web at www.medicine.mcgill.ca/ugme under "student evaluation".

The Faculty operates on a modified pass/fail system. This in effect means that students' standings, class rank, and grades in courses and rotations are not available to any external agency such as hospitals, universities or licensing bodies. For purposes of internal use students' numerical grades are used in the calculations required for student feedback, academic advising and promotion, awards, prizes, Dean's Honour List designation, academic bursaries and Faculty medals.

For the purposes of evaluation, the four-year curriculum is broken down into the following promotion periods.

Promotion Period I

Units 1 to 6 and Introduction to the Patient

Promotion Period II

Units 7, 8, 9 and Introduction to the Practice of Medicine
(The beginning of Year II to end of Unit 9)

Promotion Period III

Introduction to Clinical Medicine

Promotion Period IV

Practice of Medicine

Promotion Period V

Back to Basics

STUDENT PROMOTIONS

The Committee on Student Promotion and Curriculum Outcomes (CSPCO) will review the academic record, professional conduct and general performance of any student on a regular basis and will determine whether the student may proceed to the next promotion period.

No evaluation, examination mark, etc. shall be considered final until passed by the Committee on Student Promotion and Curriculum Outcomes.

Where a student has failed one or more units, or has been found to have been engaged in unprofessional conduct, the Committee on Student Promotion and Curriculum Outcomes will automatically review the student's entire academic record and general performance. The Committee on Student Promotion and Curriculum Outcomes may require the student: a) to undergo remedial rotation(s), b) to repeat an entire Promotion Period, c) to be suspended from the program for up to one year or d) to be dismissed from the program. A student who obtains a "failure" or two or more "below expectations" may be placed on probation.

Academic offences such as plagiarism and cheating on examinations, including examinations administered by the Faculty of Medicine on behalf of external agencies, and unprofessional conduct, are considered serious offences which could lead to dismissal from the program. A student who engages in criminal activity and/or who is found guilty of having violated the criminal code will have his/her dossier referred to the CSPCO; this may be considered evidence of unsuitability for the practice of medicine and grounds for dismissal from the program.

The Faculty reserves the right to dismiss from the program any student who is considered incompetent and/or unsuitable for the practice of medicine.

Promotion Period I

Evaluation will be reflective of the objectives of an individual unit.

The students' performance in each unit will be assessed by intraunit and final evaluation.

The student must complete all units in Promotion Period I successfully and attain a defined average in order to be promoted to Promotion Period II (see Student Handbook for details).

The Committee on Student Promotion and Curriculum Outcomes will review the record of any student failing a unit and, under certain conditions, remedial activity and a supplemental evaluation will be permitted.

Promotion Period II

Evaluation will be reflective of the objectives of an individual unit.

The students' performance in each unit will be assessed by intraunit and final evaluation.

The student must complete all units in Promotion Period II successfully and attain a defined average in order to be promoted to Introduction to Clinical Medicine (see Student Handbook for details).

Promotion Period III

Evaluation will be reflective of the objectives of an individual unit.

The student must complete all units in Introduction to Clinical Medicine successfully in order to be promoted to the Practice of Medicine (see Student Handbook for details).

Promotion Period IV

Evaluation will be reflective of the objectives of an individual Clerkship Rotation.

The students' performance in each Clerkship or Elective will be assessed by clinical supervisors and written/oral/OCSE exams.

The student must complete all units in Practice of Medicine successfully in order to be promoted to Back to Basics (see Student Handbook for details).

Promotion Period V

The student must complete all courses in Back to Basics successfully in order to graduate (see Student Handbook for details).

FAILURE OF SUPPLEMENTAL EXAMINATIONS OR REMEDIAL ROTATIONS

A failure in a supplemental examination or remedial rotation in Promotion Periods I, II, III, IV, and V will result in the student being required to repeat the Promotion Period or to be dismissed from the program as determined by the CSPCO. A failure on a remedial in Promotion Period IV will result in dismissal from the program. A student may not repeat more than one Promotion Period in the curriculum. Failure in any unit/course during a repeat Promotion Period will result in immediate dismissal from the program.

The results of all supplemental examinations and the evaluation result of remedial clinical rotations will be recorded in the official transcripts as supplemental examinations, and will be considered as such for purposes of promotion.

Notification of Failures:

It is the student's responsibility to be available for notification of a failing grade. If a student is unable to be located after a reasonable effort by the Dean's office, the consequences will be borne fully by the student.

3.14 Medical Instruments

Students will be required to purchase their own medical instruments (e.g., stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, ophthalmoscope, reflex hammer). These are necessary for the Introduction to Clinical Medicine.

The purchase of a handheld computer is highly recommended for ICM and POM.

3.15 Requirements for the Degree of M.D.,C.M.

RESIDENCY MATCHING SERVICES

A matching service is a clearing house designed to help final year medical students obtain the residencies of their choice and to help hospitals and program directors obtain the students of their choice. It provides an orderly method for students to decide residency choice and for programs to decide which applicants they wish to enrol. For both students and program directors, it attempts to remove the factors that generate unfair pressures and premature decisions.

The matching service acts as the agent of students on the instructions embodied in the confidential list of all the residencies for which they have applied, ranked in order of preference. Similarly, the matching service acts as the hospital's agent on the instructions embodied in its confidential list of all the students who have applied, ranked in order of the hospital's preference.

Students at McGill have access to different matching services including the Canadian Resident Matching Service which matches applicants across Canada and the National Resident Matching Program which matches applicants to programs in the U.S.

The Faculty provides comprehensive career guidance. Information sessions and personal counselling are provided throughout the program. Students are given assistance in navigating the residency application process. To this end, the Faculty makes use of its extensive alumni network throughout North America.

3.16 Requirements for Licence

Candidates accepted for admission are reminded that it is their personal responsibility to ensure that they fulfil all the licensing requirements of the country in which they intend to practise medicine. A university degree does not confer the right to practise. In each province of Canada, in each one of the United States, and in all other countries, the authority to license is vested in a licensing body which has its own special laws and requirements. In many cases a special standard of general education is insisted upon before beginning the study of medicine. One of the requirements in several provinces is that the entrance qualifications of the student must be registered with the provincial licensing body for five years or more before a licence to practise can be obtained.

Candidates accepted for admission should therefore communicate as soon as possible with the licensing body of the country, province or state in which they intend to practise and obtain from that licensing body the necessary instructions.

Candidates wishing to practise medicine in the province of Quebec must also meet the French language requirement for professionals, as described in the General University Information section  "Language Requirements for Professions".

Full information as to the requirements for registration in the various provinces may be obtained from the Registrars of the Provincial Medical Boards as follows:

3.17 Graduate Training Programs in the Clinical Departments of the Faculty of Medicine

The Faculty of Medicine, in conjunction with the affiliated teaching hospitals, offers a wide variety of programs leading to McGill Certificates of Residency Training and certification by the Collège des Médecins du Québec, the College of Family Physicians of Canada, and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. For information on the graduate medical programs available and eligibility and funding, please consult the following Web site: www.medicine.mcgill.ca/postgrad.

3.18 Graduate Studies and Research in the Medical Sciences

Opportunities for graduate work in the basic medical and clinical sciences leading to the degrees of M.Sc. and Ph.D. are offered by many of the departments of the Faculty of Medicine. By special arrangement, studies for the degree of M.Sc. can be pursued concurrently with work towards the M.D.,C.M. degree. In addition, a combined M.D./Ph.D. program is available (further information can be obtained from Program Administrator, M.D./Ph.D. Program, McIntyre Medical Sciences Building, 3655 Promenade Sir-William-Osler, Montreal, Quebec H3G 1Y6). Details of the programs available are included in Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies Calendar available on the Web at www.mcgill.ca/courses.

Research in clinical disciplines is carried out at all locations of the McGill University Health Centre - the Montreal Children's Hospital, the Montreal General Hospital, the Royal Victoria Hospital, the Montreal Chest Institute and the Montreal Neurological Hospital. Research opportunities are also available at the Lady Davis Institute of the Jewish General Hospital, the Douglas Hospital and the Shriners Hospital for Crippled Children. For administrative purposes, graduate work in several clinical departments is grouped under the Division of Experimental Medicine and the Division of Experimental Surgery. Other departments administer individual graduate programs. Consult the Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies Calendar for a description of the programs.

Inquiries concerning research training in the medical sciences should be directed to the chair or graduate program director of the department in which the candidates wish to receive their graduate education. Alternatively, letters may be addressed to the Associate Dean (Graduate Studies and Research), Faculty of Medicine.
