Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS)

The SEGi University MBBS programme is structured into two distinct phases: the Medical Sciences Phase (Phase 1), which spans the first two years, and the Clinical Phase (Phase 2), which extends over the following three years. Each phase is strategically organised into four blocks, with modules and clinical postings carefully structured to enhance learning outcomes. 

Additionally, throughout the five years of study, SEGi University incorporates essential soft skills development into the curriculum. Modules in communication skills, behavioural science, teamwork, critical thinking, problem-solving, leadership, and management are embedded to prepare students for real-world medical practice.  

The SEGi University MBBS programme holds international recognition and accreditation from various medical councils and regulatory bodies, including those in Malaysia, Thailand, Pakistan, Qatar, and the Maldives. This global recognition ensures that graduates are well-positioned for medical careers in multiple countries.
