Exactly!

Shuyui: But first, you're gonna need a near perfect or perfect pre-U results. Any Pre-U programmes will do. We have a variety of those who did IB, A-Levels, M'sian Matriculation Programme, AUSMAT, SAM, PASUM and ASASI Uitm.

You will get an MD(USM) after your 5 years here.

This programme is unique in a way that it's the first local IPTA to set up its own offshore campus here in India.

Reg the teaching staff we have very experienced Indian lecturers teaching us here.

Belgaum has a temperate weather, making the place conducive to study. It's summer isn't as hot as in Malaysia and during the rainy and the winter seasons, the nights could be as low as 10 deg celcius

Learning Anatomy with the cadavers is the most interesting part and it helps a lot in understanding its relations to other organs. 1 group consists of 8 students and with the guidance from the group lecturer, we'll examine the organs and a quick discussion and presentation will be done by the students. Mind you, not all med schools in M'sia use cadavers to teach anatomy. If there is, the cadaver per student ratio won't be as small as this.

A 500 bedded hospital specially for the students of this programme is still under construction. Will be done the latest at the end of this year

The facilities are all brand new. We have a 5 storey building as our faculty building.

Our very own 300-room hostel is under construction and will be done by this September.

You can get yourself informed more about the campus from this website http://www.usmkle.edu.in/
