What you'll study

The programme is delivered entirely through research rather than coursework. USIM describes the PhD in Medical Science as research-based with two study-mode options: full-time and part-time. Duration for the full-time route is 3 years; the part-time route may extend up to 8 years.

Entry requirements

The announcement describes an initial cohort comprising ten UMI lecturers from medicine and health fields selected to join the first intake. The source does not list formal entry criteria beyond this pilot selection.

Career prospects

Graduates are intended to strengthen academic and research capacity within medical faculties and health institutions. The collaboration specifically targets upskilling UMI teaching staff to meet regulatory and institutional expectations that increasingly require doctoral qualifications for lecturers.

Scholarships & funding angle

The published launch material does not specify scholarships, tuition, or funding arrangements. The programme is framed as a collaborative, institution-supported initiative aimed at enabling UMI lecturers to complete doctoral study more efficiently with support from USIM; prospective applicants should contact the faculty for details on funding and sponsorship.
