Study Medicine Online Courses

Is Studying Online a Good Idea?

The world of technology is continuously evolving. And with it - the world of medicine.

The changing global circumstances force us to seek alternative ways to study medicine. Naturally, teaching online was quickly utilised.

But is it a good idea to apply for an online medical course now? - Yes, of course.

Studying medicine online is now a viable option. There are courses specifically designed to be taught online. Digital learning is not an obstacle - it’s a privilege when an onsite option is not suitable for you.

Are There Any Specific Requirements?

Entry requirements for studying medicine online are the same as studying at the university. The only difference is the entrance exams - they will also be online, either via communication apps like Skype, Zoom, or using a web platform like Google Classroom. Since it's a dedicated online course different from the regular one, you won't be competing for entry with regular programme applicants.

Who Offers this Course?

✔️ Kharkiv Institute of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences is the only option available for such a course where years 1 to 3 will be studied entirely online.

What Medical Degrees Can You Get Online?

At the moment, we can offer graduate and undergraduate medical courses in English. Tuition fees are around € 6450 (£5500) per year and include all study materials and video recordings provided by the university.

The fees also cover the expenses for the creation and maintenance of an exclusive online portal. Its purpose is to store data such as documents, calendars, projects, study materials, and more for access anytime, anywhere.

Can You Study Medicine Online? How Does it Work?

While this option, or should we say opportunity, is fairly new, some students are sceptical about studying medicine online and if it’s even possible. The short answer is “yes, it is possible, and it works perfectly fine”. But you are not here for the short answer, so let us explain.

Doctors will teach this flexible and full-time programme. It is designed specifically for online students, with schedules and curriculums to ensure the smoothest learning experience.

Students will have video seminars using Zoom or Google Classroom, where they will have the opportunity to cooperate and reach out to their tutors.

Attending the classes as scheduled is compulsory. Absences must be compensated with a lesson outside the regular schedule.

Live lectures will be recorded, so you can always go back and review the material. This is exactly where the online portal mentioned above comes in handy. The portal is loaded with all kinds of study materials to help you prepare and ace the exams.

The examination sessions will also be online, and you will need to have a web camera. Exams will be Multiple choice questions (MCQ) and oral discussions. This will help teachers assess your understanding of the subjects learned throughout the duration of the semester.

What About the Clinical Years?

We’re all hoping that the student life in Ukraine goes back to normal as soon as possible. Because we cannot predict when this will happen, you have the option to organise the clinical rotations in your home country.

The university will recognise your rotations if you provide the proper documentation from your hospital of choice.

Will My Online Degree Be Recognised?

Yes, your online medical degree will be recognised. The only difference between a regular course and an online one is the way you attend – physically versus digitally. Simple as that.

Since the university is properly accredited and its degree is recognised all over the world, you won’t have to worry about finding a job as a doctor. As long as you study hard and pass your exams, you will reap the fruits of your labour.
