About this course

QIU is a private comprehensive research-led University established in 2008 in collaboration with the state government of Perak with the goal of becoming an international educational hub. Subsequently a state-of-the-art Medical Faculty was established in Ipoh to cater for the medical programme which had its inaugural intake in 2012.

The MBBS programme at QIU follows an Integrated Hybrid Problem-Based Learning Curriculum. The 5-year MBBS curriculum consists of two contiguous phases: Phase I (Years 1 & 2) and Phase II (Years 3 to 5). In Phase I, the emphasis is on basic sciences with early clinical exposure, while Phase II focuses on the clinical sciences integrated with the applied aspects of basic and laboratory sciences.

Our MBBS programme offers:

  • Affordable tuition fees
  • All 5 years at QIU
  • Clinical training within the state of Perak
  • Highly qualified, experienced and committed local and international academic staff
  • State-of-the-art Teaching and Clinical Skills Laboratories with a Mock Ward

Upon successful completion of this training programme, the graduates would have acquired sufficient knowledge, developed essential competencies and imbibed the correct professional attitudes to function as an effective primary health care provider. They would have also gained life-long learning skills and would be motivated and trained enough to conduct research and ready for postgraduate training in their field of interest.
