Abstract:
The higher medical education in China starts late and needs further exploration and improvement.While in Germany,it is elite education with a long history.Compared with China,in curriculum setting,Sociology,Medical health security,Humanities and Social Sciences and Organ system classification courses are more emphasized,and in terms of degree,it only has Doctor degree but with higher quality in Germany.Higher medical education in China will also take the path of the elite education.We can learn from the German medical education development experience and pay attention to solving the lack of the curriculum by supplementing social medicine and medical health security,increase the autonomy of the instructors in the training process,strengthen the medical students' social responsibility,and improve the quality of higher medical education in China.
