Abstract:
Medical education in the United Kingdom consists of undergraduate education, post-graduate education and continuing medical education. Medical curriculum in the United Kingdom is characterized by key prominent settings, early clinical practices and small group teachings. Through analyzing advantages of medical education in the United Kingdom and combining with the reality of medical education in our country, we advocate optimizing the educational system, emphasizing clini-cal practices and skill trainings, popularizing the postgraduate education and continuing education, practicing multidisciplinary rotation and developing the general practice medical education.
