The
Ministry of Health is considering the inclusion of research procedures and
medical ethics in medical curriculum and is planning projects to serve
physicians and other medical professionals.
The
ministry plans to increase its budget to fund research at medical universities
since current levels are not sufficient.
Since the
2012-2013 academic year, the matriculation score for entry to medical
universities had been being high, and the number of medical students
countrywide has been reduced in order to favour quality over quantity.
Also,
post graduate diploma courses in medicine will admit not only the civil
servants but also private sector physicians who have practiced since 2015. For
the 2015-2016 academic year, the University of Medicine-1 has opened diplomas
in obstetrics and gynaecology, child health education, pathology, anaesthetics,
radiology and first aid.
According
to data released by the Health Ministry, a total of 12,866 physicians, 674
dentists, 407 dental nurses and 30,793 medical nurses have already appointed in
the public sector as of 2015.
