Abstract:

Traditional medicine is recognized in developing countries though its methods of treatments, training, and policy have not fully been implemented into their health care system. In highly developed countries, many schools of allopathic medicine have training of complementary and alternative medicine. School of Traditional Medicine is one of 10 schools of Health Sciences University of Mongolia. Curriculum of traditional medical education has been changed for 4 times since establishment of School of Traditional Medicine in 1989. There is strong need to develop traditional medical education towards to international standards. Traditional medical education policy should be developed based on research and constant supply of traditional medical practitioners and population with useful knowledge.
