Overview of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) in Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman UTAR Malaysia

Medicine is a life-long career option that helps to provide a great social service in caring for the ill and ailing, as well as to prevent many illnesses thereby helping to create a healthier society. 

Even though being a doctor can be very stressful and could drain one emotionally, it is a very rewarding career. As a doctor, one already holds a special status in society while making a great difference to the lives of many people. Ultimately, medicine is a life-changing career that will expose you to many different experiences that you will not find anywhere.

The UTAR MBBS programme follows a systemic and integrated approach that aims to equip graduates with not only the required clinical skills, but also effective communication skills to function as competent and caring doctors. 

Academic foundation, analytical and critical thinking ability will be provided for engagement in life-long learning, research and continuing professional development. Ethical values, professionalism and moral responsibility to both patients and the community will be instilled in the UTAR graduates.
